Today in the press for fans of the famous film director and playwright Roman Polanski have published not very pleasant news. It became known that a certain 60-year-old Robin, whose full name is hiding in every possible way, accused Roman of rape when she was 16 years old. While Polanski himself, like his lawyers, does not comment on the incident, everyone knows that this is not the first charge of rape of minors.
The victims of the filmmaker's violence teamed up
Foreign edition The Los Angeles Times says that Robin decided to disclose not very pleasant information about the famous 83-year-old film director 44 years after the rape because another victim of Polanski, Samantha Gamer, recently publicly spoke to the press. In her statement to journalists, Samantha said the following words:
"When I was 13, the film director Polanski corrupted me. After this, trials began that lasted for 40 years. I'm so tired that I do not want anything else. It seems to me that Roman has already served his sentence for this act. I forgive him. He does not owe me anything anymore. "
After this, the press was addressed by the lawyer Gamer - Gloria Allred. The woman explained her words to her client a little:
"In my life this is the only trial that lasted 40 years. I have never had such a thing in practice. I believe, however, like Gamer, that there is no longer any point in continuing it. The expulsion of Polanski from the United States and the lack of an opportunity to return here is the most severe punishment that could only come up. I have repeatedly heard that Roman dreams of returning to the United States, which is considered the center of the world film industry. Despite the director's great desire, Interpol continues to track his whereabouts and is unlikely to ever remove Polanski's charges. "

In 1978, Roman fled the US
After it became known in 1977 that Polanski was corrupted by a 13-year-old gamer, the director was taken into custody for 42 days. Further, he was released, but he did not stay in the US for a long time. After the court sentenced him to 50 years in prison, Polanski urgently fled to France. Since then, the film director has worked and lives in this European country.
In 2009, Roman again fell into the hands of Interpol. He had the imprudence to fly on business in Zurich and was detained there. After lengthy proceedings, Polanski was released under a huge deposit of $ 4.5 million, which allowed him to return safely to Paris. According to the laws of the United States, the accusation of a film director can not be removed throughout his life, because he is assigned the status of "fugitive from justice."
