TO THE SWISS, THE FRENCH AND THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY, FORCIBLE RAPE OF A CHILD IS OK

What a miscarriage of justice! Roman Polanski did not just have ‘unlawful sex with a minor.’ He FORCIBLY RAPED his victim. Obviously, the Swiss, the French and the Entertainment Industry do not consider the following facts to be a crime:
　
After plying the 13-year-old girl with Quaalude and champagne, Roman Polanski instructed his victim to get into a jacuzzi naked, refused to take her home when she begged to go, began kissing her even though she said no and asked him to stop; performed cunnilingus on her as she said no and asked him to stop; put his penis in her vagina as she said no and asked him to stop; asked if he could penetrate her anally, to which she replied, "No," then went ahead and did it anyway, until he had an orgasm.

SWISS REJECT U.S. REQUEST TO EXTRADITE POLANSKI

GENEVA — Switzerland will not extradite the film director Roman Polanski to the United States to face charges of unlawful sex with a minor because of a possible fault in the American application for his extradition, Justice Minister Eveline Widmer-Schlumpf told a news conference on Monday.
　
"He’s a free man," she said.
　
Mr. Polanski was arrested on an international warrant issued by the United States on charges dating from 1977. The director fled on the eve of sentencing in California because of fear that the presiding intended to renege what his defense lawyers said was a deal to avoid a prison sentence.
　
Ms. Widmer-Schlumpf said the American authorities had rejected a request by her ministry for records of a hearing by the prosecutor in the case, Roger Gunson, in January 2010, which should have established whether the judge who tried the case in 1977 had assured Mr. Polanski that time he spent in a psychiatric unit would constitute the whole of the period of imprisonment he would serve.
　
"If this were the case, Roman Polanski would actually have already served his sentence and therefore both the proceedings on which the U.S. extradition request is founded and the request itself would have no foundation," the Swiss Justice Ministry said in a statement.
　
Swiss authorities jailed Mr. Polanski, the Polish-born filmmaker, in Zurich in September 2009 in response to the American warrant but in December allowed him to move to his chalet in the ski resort of Gstaad under house arrest on bail of $4.5 million pending a decision on his extradition. Mr. Polanski’s French lawyer, Georges Kiejman, hailed the Swiss government’s decision for concluding Mr. Polanski’s "long ordeal," and said he would be able return to his home and family in France.
