In the coming days and weeks—as time permits—we will be sharing our thoughts, as well as some previously reported facts surrounding the curiously timed arrest in Switzerland of director Roman Polanski on a 1970’s statutory rape charge out of Los Angeles, after the director’s wife, Sharon Tate, was brutally murdered by the Manson crime family.
Was the bereaved, venerable, and vulnerable director set up for a shakedown by a stage mother who could not make it on her own and also dropped her daughter off (unescorted) at a party at Jack Nicholson’s house in the 70’s?
Did the Los Angeles County Superior Court bench conspire to violate Polanski’s rights, including by submitting to coaching by a prosecutor on how to handle the director's sentencing and possibly a shady surrender deal a decade later motivated by a judge's desire for television coverage?
We will be heavily reporting the story of Polanski’s Swiss arrest on a Los Angeles County Superior Court warrant/United States government request for extradition in the coming days and weeks—including sharing our own contrarian thoughts in this controversial case.
But in the interim, what do you think about this case?
