A US citizen has appeared in court to face a charge of causing the death of teenage motorcyclist Harry Dunn by dangerous driving.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Anne Sacoolas, 45, appeared at Westminster Magistrates’ Court via videolink from the United States.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Mr Dunn, 19, died following a collision outside a US military base in Northamptonshire in August 2019.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

She was granted unconditional bail and the case will next be heard at the Old Bailey on 27 October.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Mrs Sacoolas had diplomatic immunity asserted on her behalf by the US administration following the collision near RAF Croughton and left the UK 19 days later.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The family of Harry Dunn, including his parents Charlotte Charles and Tim Dunn, and twin brother Niall, were at court for the appearance.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

At the six-minute hearing, the defendant spoke only to confirm her name and date of birth as she followed proceedings next to her lawyer, Amy Jeffress.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

The chief magistrate Paul Goldspring told Mrs Sacoolas she would be required to appear in person at the Old Bailey.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

But he said that might change as there would be a joint application to allow Mrs Sacoolas to appear via videolink again.<\/p>\n
