Strange Timing & Motive In Polanski Arrest

[Jan Klimkowski]

I have no good feelings about this.

Polanski raped and buggered a child, and has somehow managed to portray himself as the victim.

I kind of understand your lack of good feelings, but you certainly see that this case is much more complex than this. In fact the swiss decision does not concern the question of guilt, P. himself admitted his guilt 33 years ago. The decision, about which I do have good feelings concerns the rejection of a bogus extradition request at a time when all people involved in the original crime have made their peace with it and the sudden interest after all this time certainly does not serve justice, whatever that may be in this case. Would your feelings really be better if P. would have been sent to the US? Why?

Carsten -Polanski drugged and anally raped a 13-year-old child. I don't know what the appropriate sentence is for that, but Polanski sure as hell didn't serve it.

I've articulated my thoughts on Polanski, and his vicious, sadistic, criminal circle - which included the notorious Bob Evans and lots of spooky characters - in many posts on DPF. Including in this very thread. See eg here:

The timing of the American extradition request was strange. Certainly.

But the notion of Polanski as victim is one I find utterly repugnant.
