British PM Johnson says the UK will continue to make representations to the US 'at every level' to support the family of teenage motorcyclist Harry Dunn, who was killed in a collision involving a US diplomat's wife.
A spokesman for the Dunn family criticized her response.
Radd Seiger said he knew Jeffress was"one of the finest and most outstanding lawyers" in the U.S.. But he said her statement"boggles the mind and is deeply disturbing." He added:"For Ms Jeffress to seek to undermine one of the most mature, well-developed legal systems in the world, which has fairness at its heart, and which many countries around the world have modelled their legal systems on, is unbecoming of any lawyer, let alone someone of her stature."
Dunn's parents met U.S. President Donald Trump in October while campaigning for Sacoolas to face justice. , who was also in the White House at the same time, but they rejected the proposal and have continued to call for her extradition.Linda Givetash is a reporter based in London.
