The victim in the case, who is now 45, also has filed court papers calling for charges against Polanski to be dismissed.

Saying the publicity that surrounds the case is hurting her and her family, Samantha Geimer wrote that she would appear in court to seek the dismissal even if Polanski does not.

do you know why she wants it dismissed? not because she feels he is innocent or shouldnt do any jail time. she is tired of the publicity whenever its in the news about him having a trial.

not that it matters. she really has no say in it. the fact the dirtbag pleaded GUILTY to it is all that matters.

Wrong sir, wrong. Learn to history from both sides.

where am i wrong? even from the article linked "

do a little more research and you you will find more indepth about it. she is tired of the publicty and does not want it. its not that she thinks he is innocent. she has always said he is.

And a victim of Sexual assault does NOT have to testify or even want it. . add in the fact that he has already PLEAD GUILTY and its even worse. there is no way its getting dropped.


so again where am i wrong?

He will get his. The guy in his cell will show him what rape is about.

Who said drunk 13 year old girls deserved to get raped?

Anyway, her parents and the home owner should have been legally bitch slapped for allowing a 13 year old to get so drunk she passed out.

Now, I know some of you are going to read that and think "Wow, Nik said 13 year old girls deserve to get raped!" but if you could just hold back on posting that kind of nonsense, that would be greeeaaaaaaaat. mkay?

might want to look a little more into it.

Polanski asked Geimer's mother if he could photograph the girl for the French edition of Vogue, which Polanski had been invited to guest-edit. Her mother allowed a private photo shoot. According to Geimer in a 2003 interview, "Everything was going fine; then he asked me to change, well, in front of him." She added, "It didn't feel right, and I didn't want to go back to the second shoot."

Geimer later agreed to a second session, which took place on March 10, 1977 at the Mulholland area home of actor Jack Nicholson in Los Angeles. "We did photos with me drinking champagne," Geimer says. "Toward the end it got a little scary, and I realized he had other intentions and I knew I was not where I should be. I just didn't quite know how to get myself out of there." Geimer testified that Polanski performed oral sex on her, and vaginal and anal intercourse, after giving her a combination of champagne and quaaludes.[13] In the 2003 interview, Geimer says she resisted. "I said no several times, and then, well, gave up on that," she says.[14]


at 13 a child is easy to talk into things. add in the fact of his reputations (not to mention spiking her drink) leads to bad things.



no matter how you justify it. the bastard needs to be in jail. he got a 13 yr old drinking, drugged her and then raped her.

There is no better panty remover than Quaalude. You could talk Mother Teresa in to doing a lap dance with enough of it.

Haha. Comments like this make me think logging in was a good idea.

Pure gold.

Bahahaah! :laugh:

Justice will be done.

Too late for that. He wouldn't return to the US if he were sentenced to jail time anyway. You are going to have to go to his country and beat him with a sack of oranges until he dies or something.

Is that so?

His mother was killed and his father imprisoned in concentration camps by Nazis during the holocaust and his wife and unborn child along with several others were brutally murdered at his house by the Manson family. Is that good enough?

HE ASS RAPED A 13 YEAR OLD GIRL AFTER DRUGGING HER. HE WAS 38 WHEN HE DID THIS

The girl has moved on with her life and doesn't want to deal with it anymore. The guy is a miserable pos, but the Justice Dept. are grandstanding pos for choosing to arrest him after all these years.

She did.

His victim, Samantha Geimer, who long ago identified herself publicly, sued Polanski and reached an undisclosed settlement. But she has since joined in Polanski's bid for dismissal, saying she wants the case to be over and at one point offering to come to court in Polanski's place to argue for dismissal.

She sorta looks like the former first lady

Wait, I thought the girl said that he shouldn't be charged and that she had no ill will towards him?

She was tired of testifying and having to bring the incident up in court and she wanted the whole thing to go away after x decades of nothing happening. I don't think she ever said she has no ill will toward him,

It doesn't give him a blank check to fuck children.

He's a piece of shit that deserves to be punished for what he did. Even if the victim says now that he shouldn't be punished, it's not up to her. He broke the law so he must atone to society, not the victim.

I know the term. I was being sarcastic.

It does apply because he has already been tried and a plea agreement was reached. 90 day psych evaluation. The reason he fled the country is that the highly unethical judge, despite the plea agreement and partial sentence completed, was going to impose another sentence on top of the one reached through a plea in order to save face. Even the prosecutor has admitted this was going to happen.

Double jeopardy does not only apply to being acquitted. It also applies to being convicted. You cannot be tried and convicted twice for the same crime. The only possible "retrial" would be for the sentencing.

Should there be another trial and another sentence beyond the one agreed to, he would be tried again after being convected, and a possible second punishment enacted. Both are forms of double jeopardy.

Even redoing the sentencing would likely be immediately struck down on appeal since there is clear evidence that the judge had agreed to a plea and begun executing the sentence.

He fled the country thus his plea deal is out the window. His conviction still stands. So it doesn't matter what the judge "might" have done because he didn't do it and Polanski fled. If you don't want to go to FPMITAP don't rape children.

why cant people read anymore?

Polanski, who was 43 at the time, violated the youngster eight years after losing pregnant Sharon in the brutal 1969 slaying by the Charles Manson "family".

i read something somewhere....saying that the girl promoted his motion to get the charges dropped...or something....just because she wanted to case to be over with already (let me find out where i read it) so....if she was the one who got raped, and she wants to throw out the case, why dont they throw it out? ive seen them throw out rape cases like this before....frequently

you frequently see cases where a person ahs plead guilty to rape and fleed to another country have the charges thrown out? really?

the original case is irrelevant, as he was already found guilty and fled justice.

where?

We got more than enough prisoners to pay for here in CA already, do we really need to go all the way out to Switzerland to get some new ones?
BTW, if Polanski is in CA prison and gets movie royalties, does he have to pay CA taxes on those? Is he considered CA resident? Then it may make some sense.

what if someone drugged your 13 y/o daughter and then raped her. would you just excuse him because the prison system is burdened?

But the judge reneged on the plea deal that was agreed to by all parties. So it's OK for a judge to spit in the face of the judicial system?
