He Said, She Said

"When I was being driven to the police station from the hotel, the car radio was already talking about it...I couldn’t believe...I thought, you know, I was going to wake up from it. I realize[d], if I have killed somebody, it wouldn’t have had so much appeal for the press, you see? But...f***ing, you see, and the young girls. Judges want to f*** young girls. Juries want to f*** young girls—everyone wants to f*** young girls!"
—Roman Polanski, in an interview with Martin Amis, Tatler magazine, 1979.

“Roman Polanski is a criminal...He raped and drugged and raped and sodomized a child. And then was a fugitive from justice. As far as I’m concerned, just take him out and shoot him.”
—Cokie Robert, on This Week with George Stephanopoulos, Oct. 4, 2009.

I love Roman's films as much as the next person, but honestly, is there any reason he shouldn't go to jail?

No. There is no just reason that he shouldn't be in prison.
