Yes, sometimes justice does seem to move in strange ways. Two days after the death of the woman who forty years ago slaughtered his wife and her unborn child, Roman Polanski is arrested in Switzerland on a 31-year-old arrest warrant for raping a thirteen-year-old girl at Jack Nicholson's house. Sure, Polanski's a great artist and he survived the Holocaust and a recent documentary showered him with great sympathy and the victim has given him her forgiveness, but before you start feeling too sorry for the perverted sonofabitch, take a stroll over to the Smoking Gun website and read the grand jury testimony from the victim.
He's lived pretty nicely since he fled to Paris all those years ago.

IMO, all those people feeling for his would speak differently if this was their daughter.
ReplyDeleteI agree, just cos she forgave him doesn't mean he's free from the law.
But again - who are we to judge?
Manson follower Susan Atkins who had killed Roman Polanski's wife, Sharon Tate died a couple of days ago and now this announced arrest of Roman Polanski.
ReplyDeleteWhat I can't understand is, how did Polanski manage to evade the law all these years with the so called technology of cameras and GPS, etc. There is just NO way that one can hide from the law with all of technology that is out there.
Something is just screwy here. I think the authorities DID know where he was hiding all these years. And one has to question as to why did they decide to arrest him NOW and not arrest him from years ago? Not to mention that this is going to cost taxpayers money for a trial that will drag on for years.
This is another example of how there is no such thing as "justice" in the justice system in the USA. Criminals go free while the innocent and victims get sent to prison.
I read the transcript of the victims interview with Larry King..... I think Roman Polanski is guilty. but the mother who let her 13 year old daufgter go off with a man without supervision should also be facing trial...... this is sooo reminiscent of parents selling thier children in the hope of making them stars... or getting money from settlements..... by all means let RP go to jail and then lets get all the would be parents of stars to stop putting thier children in dangerous situations.....
ReplyDeleteThe victim herself is saying “Let it go”
ReplyDeleteIf it was 10 years ago yeah kick him in the crotch
5 years ago nail his ass to a cross
This is 31 years ago she has managed to pull her life together and get on with it she has “Forgiven” (for lack of a better word) him she has settled out of court with him
Now the American government wants to rape her all over again just to get their pound of flesh?
For all that this woman has been through let her put it to rest if she’s saying “let it go” then just let it go
This is great news for all those pedophiles out there! Way to go Samantha! now drop your panties!
ReplyDeleteLittle doubt, the dude is completely just.
