There are some actions that are just beyond the pale like drugging and sexually abusing a thirteen-year-old girl. Roman Polanski took a child to a party at Jack Nicholson's house and gave her Quaaludes and alcohol. Polanski took advantage of the girl having sexual intercourse and sodomizing the child. These acts are not alleged, Polanski plead guilty to a reduced charge of "illegal sex with a minor"in 1977.
This was a shameful situation all around. Shame on that child's parents for allowing her to go anywhere alone with Polanski. Shame on Jack Nicholson for condoning such behavior in his home. Shame on all the enlightened nitwits who defend Polanski. Apparently they cannot grasp the concept that a good director can also be a monster and the work does not excuse the evil.
Polanski fled the United States to avoid arrest and incarceration for his heinous acts. He has lived well for 32 years in France where it is considered unsophisticated to hold artist to any standards of decency. Now he has been arrested and there is a chance that he will finally receive the punishment he deserves. In a bit of irony the much celebrated Polanski was taken when he appeared to accept an award.
