Polanski Wants Sex Crime Charges Dropped, But Doesn't Deny Effing a 13-year Old
Back in 1978, famed director Roman Polanski fled Hollywood after pleading guilty to having sex with a 13-year old girl and has been since living in self-imposed exile in France ever since.
Well, on Tuesday, lawyers for Polanski filed a request to dismiss the charge against him because of prosecutorial and judicial misconduct.
The filing claims that a recently released HBO documentary called Roman Polanski: Wanted and Desired revealed "a pattern of misconduct and improper communications" between the Los Angeles County district attorney's office and the judge in Polanski's case.
"This case serves as a classic example of how our justice system can be abused, and defendants' rights trampled, by an unholy alliance between courts and criminal prosecutors," said Polanski's lawyers.
So, they want to dismiss the case on technicalities.
But, they don't deny that Polanski had sex with the 13-year old!
Had Roman not skipped out to France, the maximum sentence he could have faced was 50 years, but prosecutors had said at the time that the typical sentence was 16 months to three years in prison.
A spokesperson for the Los Angeles District Attorney said their office had not been served with the motion and had only heard about it through the media.
"We're looking forward to seeing Mr. Polanski in Los Angeles to litigate it," said the DA rep.
We can't wait to see how this plays out!

UNREAL! I never understood why actors and actresses still worked with this perverted man. It's annoying to see that he never did any time for his crime. Sickening.
Me me dismiss you, you fukhead mutherfuker rapist fuk.
thats effin gross
Let him eat cake. Putz.
roman polanski and woody allen should get together. i'd love to be a fly on that wall:
woody: gotta love the good ol' u.s. of a! you can get away allll kinds of shit here.
roman: hook me up with soon-yi's little sis!
seriously, they are both sick child molester pedophiles. sick. guard your children!!!
I'm sure she wasn't his first or last. He's SICK!!!
Ummm…hes older in the pic than he was in 1978. didnt the girls mom bring her to him?
FUCK THIS DIRTY BASTARD! HE KNOWS HE DID IT…THE GIRL'S STORY NEVER CHANGED…HE'S A FUCKSTICK!
HE SHOULD HAVE STAYED AND FACED THE CONSEQUENCES OF HIS CRIME! WHAT IS IT WITH BRILLANT FILM MAKERS AND BEING A PEDO!!!!!
He needs to be put where he's a bad man's girlfriend.

Re: ****MRS.JOSH*HOLLOWAY**** –
You took the fucking words out of my mouth. Let me do the honors. hehehehehe, I'll torture the fuck.
bastard.
He may be questionable, but he is a brilliant artist. Hollywood could use the return of Polanski!
disguisting. i dont understand how anyone could live with themselves!
Re: harrybalsac – hahaha!
HE HAS HAD HIS SHARE OF SHIT, LET'S AGREE ON THAT!
Re: SammiHanratty – IT WAS A SET UP. THE GUY WAS OUT OF HIS MIND AT THE TIME ANYWAY.
Sorry for the caps. Got stuck.
Anyway, anyone would have been after what he went through.
Fuck no!! Old Pedo asshat. Why does he want the charges dropped? There must be some American teenage girl he wants to come over and violate!
I for one will be very pissed off, if he manages to get the charges dropped. It's not even like he was found guilty. He Plead guilty, he needs to pay for his crime. If he had not run off he would have paid off his debt over 20 years ago and nobody would remember him for anything but movies.
Mahogany doesn't understand why actors would work with RP. I feel the same about Woody Allen, yet they line up. I feel ambivalent about RP. What he did was awful (yet I'm not sure it wasn't consensual — still, we have laws and he broke 'em)…yet there are worse people walking the streets of the USA, no? Much worse. On the other side, he has great talent and has kept himself out of trouble over in Europe, right?
Did all this happen right after his pregnant wife was brutally murdered by the manson family??
he's a creeeeep >_
Re: SWEETPIECE! –
yea i read about the story. The girls name was samantha geimer. her mother was taking her all over hollywoood trying to get her 2 b a star. she had sex b4 she did drugs b4 she met that roman guy. her mothre put her with him so she could b a star. just like britney spears lol
We should pass a proposition and let adults marry 13 year old girls. that way he can get back in the country and stop being discriminated against.
Do you people even know who this is? This man was a holocaust survivor, with many members of his family getting brutally murdered, and on top of that, his pregnant wife is killed by Charles Mason's family. CLEARLY he has suffered from psychological problems. You're saying that any of you would lead to live a perfectly normal life after seeing and being part of what he has seen?
Re: SammiHanratty – perez also failed to mention that that girl, Samantha, is ALSO asking that the charges be dropped …
(not that i necessarily condone what he did….even if she was consenting i still think sex with a 13 yr old is yucky)
if the victim doesn't want it prosecuted then they should drop the charges
Re: Twhite –
so, in your line of logic, if some guy who had experienced what he had, it would be perfectly acceptable if he had sex with your 13 year old daughter/sister/niece?
his tragedies do not justify pedophilia, thank you very much.
Re: Twhite –
And how does any of that give you the right to fuck a 13 yr old. And quite brutally (according to the police report….)
He's a pig and should never be allowed to not pay for his actions.
Send him to San Quentin to hang out with Charlie..he already had his wife killed, he could be next for the Manson family.
He needs to die along with Woody Allen. F@#king child molesters
Don't do the crime if you can't do the time! Why has France not extradited this man back to the U.S.? He should be shunned and no actor should work with him…Adrien Brody. Where are people's principles these days??
Re: SammiHanratty –
What if she did? It's still up to him…nasty bastard
Let me see….
Does this pedophile deserve to have his charges of rapping a 13 year old girl dropped just because he says so?
I'm a survivor of child abuse and his "petition" is absolutely shocking…! What would the message be to all pedophiles? Rape a child and get out of the country long enough to get your sentence forgotten? I don't fucking thinks so….
FUCK YOU PEDOPHILES…!
I hope his ass gets arrested as soon as he steps on LAX
Re: Twhite – So, it's OK to screw a child if you survived the Holocaust??? WOW there's a stretch!
Re: GA_Dawgette – He committed a crime against all humanity when he bedded a 13 year old child. We have laws and in the law a 13 year old is not old enough to consent.
Re: LiLu Multipass –
Theodore Kaczynski is also a brilliant man, should we pair Polanski and Kacynski and send them over hollywood?
Re: Twhite –
Would you then forgive him, based in his "tragic" life if it was your 13 year old daughter that one that was raped by him?
Wondering…………~
Hey, who messed up Ted Koppel's hair???
God, I miss Quaaludes.
Hasn't Roman suffered enough already? Since fleeing the country, he dated an underage Natassia Kinski, married a barely legal model, lives in a multimillion dollar villa, is the toast of France, won an Oscar, directed movies with A list celebrities like Harrison Ford and Johnny Depp, and won an Oscar. How can anyone expect a convicted statutory rapist to suffer any more indignations as Polanski has since he fled to France?
Seriously though, I know the guy got a raw deal with the judge, but he is still an admitted pedophile who started a relationship with a 16 year old girl even before he was convicted of raping a 13 year old girl. I say screw him. He got off easy.
Fuck this child rapist scum and EVERY SINGLE phoney liberal ACTOR that has worked with him since he fled the country. Imagine if it was you or YOUR 13 year-old child. This wasn't just statutory rape, it was full-on child rape.
Re: Twhite –
No sympathy for the scum. Being a holocaust survivor and husband to a murdered wife doesn't give you a free pass on rape. It should have made him more concerned about the plight of the weak.
You left out the important fact that the 13 year old girl is now a grown woman and has also asked that all charges be dropped against him as the case is irrelevant to her now.
No matter what, he broke the law even if both parties want the charges dropped it's up to the DA to drop the charges. He did in fact drug the teenager and had sex with her numerous times.Her mother basically whored her out and left her child unattended with him and let's NOT FORGET Jack Nicolson…who was there and probly dip his shit into her too! I don't care if he had a DRAMATIC history with his family and his wife who was murdered…You know the difference between right and wrong! The law remains the same!
Re: kimothy123 – finally…another intelligent person who doesnt just believe what perez posts and actually finds out the WHOLE story!
He's from POLAND (center of the Europe, near the Germany), he lives in France, but he's a Polish, someone should to mention about that. No matter what he did, he's famous director from Poland.
France kicks US ass. Stay in France.
Re: CarolinaBreeze –
Ummm…do girls have a sex drive? do we ever act sexy to get what we want? drop the virgin bs! i know a dozen girls in my school seelping or doing stuff w/ their bfs. And im not even in HS yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: LiLu Multipass – NO NO NO! We'd have to hide all teen girls, just import the perverts films
Re: SammiHanratty – Girls were a little different back then. Even then, so what? would you want your 13 year old around him?
I HATE the fact that this peadophile still gets such respect and admiration from Hollywood. It's SICK he's a fucking child rapist and the entertanment industry seem to have not acknowledged this and brushed it under the carpet. I mean if he were just an average guy he would be stigmatised and hated yet bcos he's a celebrity it's just fine. This kind of behavior is what's up with the world we live in!
Well, according to that little 13 year old… she lost her virginity when she was 12. It was a whoooooooooole different world back in the day…
Yeah, I do feel bad for Roman Polanski.
But you guys should read the details of the case. He didn't just "have sex" with a 13 year old. He drugged and sodomized a 13 year old. Uhhh….he should just pay for his crimes and be done with it.
He'd probably only get a year anyway, it really wouldn't be that bad. Sheesh.
Yo, morons, he didn't just have sex with a 13 year old. He got a 13 year old drunk, drugged her up till she passed out and then raped and sodomized her. He should be sitting in prison right now. But, because the French are scum sucking pigs and never met someone that killed or raped an American that they didn't love, he's living there in perfect freedom. And, I'm not joking about the French preoccupation with giving aid and comfort to murderers and rapists who kill and attack American citizens. France has a long long dispicable history of defending and giving safe harbor to such people.
When I was thirteen, I would have played, Ride em Cowboy, faster than he could have gotten his pants off. Doesn't mean what he did was right.
