the fact that the alleged victim wants the charges dropped is likely to make any subsequent trial a bit difficult.

Glice 09.27.2009 11:53 AM

If she was 13-years-old, it's statutory rape. Ironically, what she wants from the situation has no bearing on what the American penal system will do.

Ha. Penal.

wellcharge 09.27.2009 12:02 PM

why say "alleged victim" when pretty much everyone involved has admitted that it happened as far as i know

Glice 09.27.2009 12:21 PM

'Alleged' because it's not been settled legally. Innocent until proven guilty and all that.

wellcharge 09.27.2009 12:27 PM

yeah, fair.
but usually when someone says "alleged victim" it seems to carry a connotation that they're lying and haven't been the victim of anything.

since polanksy pleaded guilty i'm sure there was enough evidence to show that she was most certainly a victim, lot's of murders never get solved but people never call the stiff an alleged victim

amerikangod 09.27.2009 12:30 PM

I don't understand why everyone can't just get together and and say "Yeah, ok, we all want to have sex with girls as soon as they're sexually developed regardless of their age too" and instead of arrest him just give him a high five.

Satan 09.27.2009 12:34 PM

fuck this.

Not when there's a lack of clear consent and administration of booze & quaaludes. Allegedly. The Smoking Gun has full court transcripts..

Mind, the kid's mother has a lot to answer for too.

Satan 09.27.2009 01:22 PM

it's just bullshit.

let bygones be bygones.

Lurker 09.27.2009 01:23 PM

Right. I think if the "victim" doesn't want him charged he shouldn't be.

amerikangod 09.27.2009 01:28 PM

I think the most important question is if she was a hot 13 year-old.

amerikangod 09.27.2009 01:32 PM

Seeing that picture, she was not worth the trouble at all. In his defense, he was raised on a diet of french women.

davenotdead 09.27.2009 01:33 PM

would hit it, but yeah, not worth all this trouble

amerikangod 09.27.2009 01:34 PM

Now this is a 13 year-old I'd suffer over:

 

amerikangod 09.27.2009 01:35 PM

Actually, can someone get that picture to his lawyers? I think I might have just saved him.

Lurker 09.27.2009 01:36 PM

Polanski made that picture.

Ah, right you are. I was talking speculatively, I don't actually know the whys and wheretofores.

DOES NOT COMPUTE

amerikangod 09.27.2009 01:47 PM

I'd go from that to the 13 year-old I posted, but they'd be a tie.

That 13-year-old you posted is gross.

13 year olds are gross.

You're lucky you're not a robot or else the logical fallacy you just uttered would have made your head explode.

Agreed, but someone should have told that to Bill Wyman when he started seeing Mandy Smith when she was only 13! Why he wasn't arrested, God only knows.

he's already been tried and convicted. There is no alleging about it. He fled the country just before sentencing. He is a child rapist.

Manson was kind of the Dexter of his day. Where are all those Polanski home movies of hitchhikers the police removed?

chicka 09.28.2009 09:51 AM

hard to swallow. Manson is no Dexter. The spineless twerp had other do his bidding and the people he chose hardly murderers.

Well the polanski's used to pick up hitchhikers and make movies and we don't really know what was on those films because the cops took the reels and they've never been seen since, at least one of the killed at Polanski's house was a drug dealer and the word is the people killed the 2nd night were involved in that also. Manson directly participated in killing Shorty.

nicfit 09.28.2009 10:45 AM

I dunno, but I think a lot of weird shit used to go down those days.

gmku 09.28.2009 04:00 PM

Give the dude a break. It was the disco 70s. We were all coked out of our minds.

Lurker 09.28.2009 04:33 PM

Well, I heard on he news that he drugged, raped and sodomised her. Throw him in jail.

Lurker 09.28.2009 04:49 PM

Satan 09.28.2009 04:50 PM
