Weird... somehow he's managed to avoid it for 30 years... isn't it his attempt to get some cheap publicity? looks like that to me.

I don't think so.That was the only reason why he didn't attend the Oscars in 2003 (for "The Pianist").

Who am I to know? However, I think he had enough time to prove he is innocent.

If one is accused of raping a 13-year-old girl, one has to prove one's innocence or bear the consequences. Polański just ran away and justice is justice. Tha's all I meant. :)

No Michał (?),When people are accused, the judgement system has to prove one's guiltiness.
You can't say he is guilty. It's not your call.ilter K. edytował(a) ten post dnia 27.09.09 o godzinie 21:30

I didn't say he is guilty, did I? By running away, he did not give the system any chance of proving his innocence or guilt. Why did he hide himself abroad? Do you think they wanted to jail him irrespective of whether he was guilty or not?

Sure.

By running away, he did not give the system any chance of proving his innocence or guilt.True, he should have waited, so maybe they could ruin his life forever.

True!

As you probably know, once a case goes to court, it cannot be left unsolved. This is how the system of justice works whether we like it or not. If one thinks one can escape the system, one is wrong.
The fact that it happens to condemn innocent people is another story. I did not say he is guilty, but someone must have raped the girl - unless she wasn't raped.

OK, Michał, let's leave the "mills of God" for another day.
The last bit was enough to make my day.
Well, at least the last 30-minutes-or-so of it.

You are very wrong. Cases do get left unsolved, and only too often so.

He chickened out and run away. If he stayed he could go to prison, probably not for too long. His defence was that he did not know she was minor and he feared not to receive fair treatment in the court.

Very funny indeed.:) I agree that my choice of the word "unsolved" was quite unfortunate. What I actually meant was that all cases are closed with some decision, but there must be some kind of decision before your court files are sent to the archives. The fact that someone likes Polański as a director does not mean the 'law' can forget about a crime he might, or not,have committed 100 hundred years ago. That's what I heard about the justice system.

What gets me is this - it all took place at Jack Nicholson's estate. I'm not sure about the laws back then, but now days, he'd be locked up too. Drugs, booze and minors in your house = time right now.
