A civil case against the woman accused over the death of Oxfordshire teenager #HarryDunn starts in the US today. Harry's family have filed a civil claim for damages against Anne Sacoolas. The first hearing is happening in court in Virginia tonight @Justice4Harry #CapitalReports
In his statement, Anne Sacoolas’ lawyer confirms both she and her husband WERE working for a US intelligence agency at the time of the crash outside RAF Croughton. He says this was “especially a factor in their departure from the U.K.” #HarryDunn #CapitalReports
He later added that Mrs Sacoolas worked for “the State Department” but could not confirm if that was a cover job for another position, possibly within an intelligence agency #HarryDunn #CapitalReports
