The Daily Telegraph quotes Christi Jackson on Prince Harry's tales of drug use

Tuesday 27 February 2024

The Daily Telegraph’s reporter Hannah Furness has quoted Christi Jackson in the article ‘How Trump could make Prince Harry’s American dream an American nightmare’.

Meanwhile, Christi Hufford Jackson, head of US Immigration Practice at law firm Laura Devine Immigration, says the Duke’s tales of drug use in ‘Spare’ do not reach a level of admission that could affect his visa status. 

“Could Trump say ‘I want you to look into his previous application’? I don’t think he would have grounds to do so here, ” she says. “But could a president push buttons below and put pressure on a government agency which reports to him to get it re-examined? Potentially. The problem is that this is completely unchartered territory.”
