RELATIVES of killed biker Harry Dunn have blasted the US government for obstructing their five-year fight for justice following his inquest.
They accused American officials of doing nothing but “run, hide and obstruct” in their campaign for answers over the death of 19-year-old Harry.

US spy Anne Sacoolas, 46, was driving on the wrong side of the road in her Volvo when she hit Harry’s Kawasaki head-on.
She then fled the UK and never returned, claiming diplomatic immunity.
Coroner Anne Pember yesterday concluded that Harry died “as a result of severe injuries he sustained during a head-on collision with a vehicle driven on the incorrect side of the road”.
She issued three Prevention of Future Deaths notices — one of which related to the lack of training given to Sacoolas for driving in the UK.
The mother of two had been based at RAF Croughton, Northants, at the time of the August 2019 crash.
She failed to return to Britain to be sentenced for causing death by careless driving and did not attend the inquest at Northamptonshire coroner’s court.
Harry’s mum Charlotte Charles said the snub was “totally disrespectful” to Harry’s memory.
Family spokesman Radd Seiger said of the US government: “It was not enough for them to kill Harry.
“It wasn’t enough for them to then kick Harry’s family in their darkest hour and seek to deny and delay the justice that they were entitled to.
“Their attitude and approach to keeping their British hosts safe has been laid bare and they have positively obstructed the coroner’s inquiry and deprived the family of the answers they were entitled to.”
