so, he gets one free pass on drugging and sodomizing a thirteen year old. can i do it too if i only promise to do it once?

If the thirteen year old, who is now 44, is asking so, he should get not a free pass, but a symbolic sentence.

In a 2003 interview, Samantha Geimer said, "Straight up, what he did to me was wrong. But I wish he would return to America so the whole ordeal can be put to rest for both of us." Furthermore, "I'm sure if he could go back, he wouldn't do it again. He made a terrible mistake but he's paid for it".
In 2008, Geimer stated in an interview that she wishes Polanski would be forgiven, "I think he's sorry, I think he knows it was wrong. I don't think he's a danger to society. I don't think he needs to be locked up forever and no one has ever come out ever - besides me - and accused him of anything. It was 30 years ago now. It's an unpleasant memory ... (but) I can live with it."

and why do you assume she is his punishment? maybe she is sentenced to an eternity of listening to him explain what a brilliant misunderstood movie pirates was.

Susan Atkins died of brain cancer three days ago. Maybe she was actually trying too hard to understand his movies . Joke apart, isn`t that a very odd coincidence?
