Sounds like a great idea. Don't like a diplomat then whisk them away during the night because, well, he broke one of our laws! However this

I'm glad she claimed diplomatic immunity and left, I would have done the same thing. Last I heard that kid was left on the ground ALIVE for about 40 minutes before an ambulance arrived and he died in hospital. As I said before I would be terrified to be in a dreadful
accident in a foreign land when the media drama and emotions run high and pretty much have condemned me before a trial. I would want to get the hell out of there.
Have your trial Id be interested to find out if his death could have been prevented had he received proper and timely treatment. According to other sources, Mrs Sacoolas stayed at the scene until the ambulance had arrived and police allowed her to leave. One only need to read this thread and understand why I think she did the right thing by claiming diplomatic immunity and left the country. It turned political hell even Trump was added to the argument here. That's pathetic and shows to me the poor woman would have never gotten a fair shake.
