In it’s aftermath, the 42-year-old suspect fled to the United States and claimed diplomatic immunity, which has sparked a global controversy.  The US State Department in a statement Friday rebuffed the extradition request. “The United States has been clear that, at the time the accident occurred, and for the duration of her stay in the UK, the driver in this case had status that conferred diplomatic immunities,” it reads.   “The use of an extradition treaty to attempt to return the spouse of a former diplomat by force would establish an extraordinarily troubling precedent.” British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has previously said Sacoolas was wrong to use Diplomatic immunity and flee the country and urged President Trump to reconsider the United State’s position on the matter.
