Have they been “investigating” Polanski for the last 50 years?
I have to refresh my memory. But as I recall, Polanski forced himself on the young girl, and a plea bargain was being negotiated. He was going to please guilty to a lesser charge, and would have avoided serious prison time. But instead, he fled to avoid justice, which adds other layers of charges against him, which have never been resolved.
Ironies abound, considering Harvey Weinstein and the me too movement. A few years ago, a number of Hollywood idiots wanted amnesty or freedom or some such drivel, for Roman Polanski. They made it sound as if he were being unjustly persecuted.
