Il est honteux de jeter en prison un homme de 76 ans pour un détournement de mineure - la seule charge retenue, aujourd'hui comme à l'époque, par la justice californienne - commis il y a trente-deux ans.
Such garbage amounts to believing that they are better than us. And therefore allowed to do as they wish. Never mind he drugged a 13-year old girl, took her into a jacuzzi and had sex with her. He was convicted of drugging her and sodomizing her.
I've loved every Polansky film I've seen. I admire his talent. Chapeau. His ordeal as a holocaust survivor moves me. But as a father and a human being who's had to battle his own demons, I hope that justice is done. Maybe he should bring a camera to prison and he just might become the star of "Polansky does the Penitentiary." Perhaps it was fated that he should receive payment in kind.
It's a tough one. There honestly is a side of me that wants to drop the case. His victim has asked repeatedly that it be dropped. She has said the media frenzy around it did her more harm than the rape itself. I empathize. But we do not seek justice for revenge, we seek justice because it is just and so, unfortunately, her wishes either way are only so relevant. He drugged and raped a 13-year-old and should face the same fate as anyone else.
