she said polanski has paid for his crime? how exactly? were those decades in paris and milan such agony? the girl was a confused teenager. and is now a confused adult. i wonder if the settlement polanski paid to her has anything to do with the more lenient attitude. he's escaped justice for thirty years. time's up.

He cannot be sentenced if there is no plaintiff, can he? By being arrested and brought to justice, he will indeed be freed from a life in exile, and the whole story will be put to rest. When the victim does not want to prosecute, there should be no prosecution. However, I see a possibility that lawyers will do all they can to convince her to go after him, so they can put their hands on his money.
