He’s certainly not the type to be a flight risk.

Well, GOODY for him! He’s probably so excited and grateful he’s going to rape another 13 year old.

Article was updated.

Apparently the appeals court has reversed the lower court ruling and will allow Polanski out on 4.5 Million Bail.

This is “nothing” for him ....

Why all this animosity toward a misunderstood artist?

Okay, he raped a little girl, but it wasn’t rape-rape. It’s not like he drugged her and then forced himself on her while she was resisting both the drugs and his superior strength and size while shouting “NO!” and “STOP!” ... okay, maybe it is ... but his work is wonderful and that makes up for a few character blemishes. Besides, the incident he was convicted of was a long time ago, so it’s okay, isn’t it?

[Note to the sarcasm impaired - with today’s liberals, I can understand why it’s hard to tell the difference between sarcasm and normal liberalism; any guesses which category fits my post?]

I understand that he owns a vast estate in Switzerland. Be a pity if he couldn’t go visit it ever again.

oh - how nice ...

his “house arrest” is in gstaad - about 70 km from the frech border (by car) - the town next over is Saanen and has a small airport ...

this will be real hard for him to escape these draconian measures to hold him in switzerland ....

It’s not like he’ll be “freed, freed”...

0bama is doing to America what Polanski did to his victim, and we not only didn’t get a Quaalude, we didn’t even get lubed up first.

So when he flees, he gives up that cash, correct?

Someone "official" or officials must have needed an influx of a little payola.

Ahh justice, you were a great thing once.

Has Hollywood started the fundraisers for the bail money yet? Wouldn’t want to have him put up (forfeit) his own money, after all.

If he’s freed on bail, I wouldn’t be surprised if he *bails* again. In fact, I bet a number of his celebrity friends would be willing to hide him, so that he could avoid prosecution.
