"Film directors Woody Allen, Pedro Almodovar and Martin Scorsese have "demanded the immediate release" of fellow filmmaker Roman Polanski, who was arrested in Switzerland on a U.S. arrest warrant related to a 1977 child sex charge."
Are you kidding me? Or what, they won't make any more films? C'mon guys, really. How about a little humility? And I'm totally a film guy and respect their work. WOODY ALLEN? I can see him standing at the podium demanding this release with his daughter wife at his side.
Who's got thoughts? Should he do the time? The victim says no. Interesting quandary. He's been convicted so she doesn't have to testify. He just awaits sentencing. Then there was the payoff. What kind of precedent is set by allowing the private negotiating of the perp-victim relationship? "Here's a sum of $$$, now go make it disappear".
