Film director Roman Polanski is to attend an extradition hearing in court after the US lodged a request with Poland to have him brought back.

Polish-born Polanski has been wanted by US police since 1977, when he fled the country after being charged with having sex with a 13-year-old girl.

He beat the system. Age 81. Will his lawyer argue that he is too old to go after another teenage girl?

POS.

Boy ... is this a real “dead horse” ... I mean the woman who is married now ... says “Forget about it; I’m tired of it all!”

I suspect she doesn’t want it all dragged up again, and having some information come out about her own actions in the matter. The horse is dead here, except for some prosecutor trying to make a name for himself ... :-) ...

Maybe he gave Cosby dosing tips. That’s about the only way to get libs interested in prosecuting him.

And he deserves to spend his last few years in prison.

There is absolutely nothing a child can do that justifies what a grown man did to her.

She says forget about it because she moved on but she is still adamant that she was raped.

As for Roman, he fled his case. He jumped his bail. That is its own crime.

Only Nazis deserve that. Communists, Libyan terrorists, Hollywood sex criminals, they all get amnesty.

I think we’ve got better things to be spending our prosecutorial dollars on... just my opinion, and I don’t care that strongly about this issue, so if someone wants to argue with me, that’s ok, I’m not arguing back... just stating my opinion once and moving on.

There are kids who try to claim ... “but, but, I was just a kid” and get away with things. I don’t buy the story.

It reminds me of an old song from West Side Story ... :-) ...

Officer Krupke - West Side Story
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pq28qCklEHc&app=desktop

— — — — —

Westside Story - Gee, Officer Krupke

Hey you
Who me, Officer Krupke?
Yeah you, gimme one good reason for not dragging
You down the station, ya punk?

Dear kindly Sergeant Krupke, you gotta understand
It’s just our bringin’ upke that gets us out of hand
Our mothers all are junkies, our fathers all are drunks
Golly Moses, naturally we’re punks

Gee, Officer Krupke, we’re very upset
We never had the love that every child oughta get
We ain’t no delinquents, we’re misunderstood
Deep down inside us there is good

There is good
There is good, there is good
There is untapped good
Like inside, the worst of us is good

That’s a touching good story
Lemme tell it to the world
Just tell it to the Judge

Dear kindly Judge, Your Honor, my parents treat me rough
With all their marijuana, they won’t give me a puff
They didn’t wanna have me but somehow I was had
Leapin’ lizards, that’s why I’m so bad

Right, Officer Krupke, you’re really a square
This boy don’t need a judge, he needs an analyst’s care
It’s just his neurosis that oughta be curbed
He’s psychologically disturbed

I’m disturbed
We’re disturbed, we’re disturbed
We’re the most disturbed
Like we’re psychologically disturbed

Hear ye, hear ye
In the opinion of this court
This child is depraved on account
He ain’t had a normal home

Hey, I’m depraved
On account I’m deprived
So take him to a headshrinker

My daddy beats my mommy, my mommy clobbers me
My grandpa is a commie, my grandma pushes tea
My sister wears a mustache, my brother wears a dress
Goodness gracious, that’s why I’m a mess

Yes, Officer Krupke, he shouldn’t be here
This boy don’t need a couch, he needs a useful career
Society’s played him a terrible trick
And sociologically he’s sick

I am sick
We are sick, we are sick
We are sick, sick, sick
Like we’re sociologically sick

In my opinion, this child does not need
To have his head shrunk at all
Juvenile delinquency
Is purely a social disease

Hey, I got a social disease So take him to a social worker

Dear kindly social worker, they tell me get a job
Like be a soda jerker, which means like be a slob
It’s not I’m antisocial, I’m only anti-work
Glory Osky, that’s why I’m a jerk

Eek, Officer Krupke, you’ve done it again
This boy don’t need a job, he needs a year in the pen
It ain’t just a question of misunderstood
Deep down inside him, he’s no good

I’m no good
We’re no good, we’re no good
We’re no earthly good
Like the best of us is no damn good

The trouble is he’s lazy, the trouble is he drinks
The trouble is he’s crazy, the trouble is he stinks
The trouble is he’s growing, the trouble is he’s grown
Krupke, we’ve got troubles of our own

Gee, Officer Krupke
We’re down on our knees
‘Cause no one wants a fella
With a social disease

Gee, Officer Krupke
What are we to do?
Gee, Officer Krupke
Krup you!

Yep, all the ILLEGAL ALIENS destroying the country ... and ... let’s go over to Poland! No wonder this country is going down the tubes ... NO PERSPECTIVE on things ... as far as the country staying viable!

His actions are what he was judged for, not hers.

It's not a complete waste. A dozen or so folks from DOJ / the U.S. Attorney's office will at least get a taxpayer-funded European vacation.

They may not come back with Polanski but they'll bring back fine memories of Warsaw's better dining establishments and watering holes.

According to the then 13-y/o girl, he drugged her and tried to rape her. She said “no” and physically resisted, and he forced himself on her using his superior strength. I don’t think predators should count on ever being safe from a crime like that. Extradite him. Try him. If the evidence is still there, convict him of this vile crime against a pre-teen girl. Then lock him up forever, or as long as it takes for an ordinary, decent criminal to deal with that pedophile.

Whoopie Goldberg claims it wasn’t “rape-rape”, but using drugs and force against a young child is close enough to “real” rape for me. [Actually, even if she consented and dressed like Lolita, that would be more than enough for me.]

I think his pregnant wife’s murder by the Manson family may have really twisted some part of his brain! Doesn’t excuse his conduct though. But what a horrible thing to go through!

He has already been convicted. He ran off when he knew they were going to put him in prison.

As if sodomizing a little girl is “having sex with”.

He didn’t have sex with an underage girl.

He raped an underage girl.

The article made sure to get that one twist in.

He didn’t have “sex” with a 13 year old girl. He drugged and sodomized her. Seducing a 13 is bad enough, and yes Whoopi, it is rape. But drugging and sodomizing her is a disgusting violent rape that deserves severe punishment. He should spend his final days in ‘short eyes’ purgatory at Leavenworth. After a fair trial of course.
