roman polanski nicked in switzerland

Yep. He's served his time

You're a pillock and ignorant of the facts (no great surprise there). Polanski has not served any part of his sentence for unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor because he left the US before sentencing.

The psychiatric assessment was not part of the sentence: first, assessment is not a punitive process; second, they are used to inform what the sentence should be and so necessarily take place before sentencing.

I think anyone who was a convicted child rapist would have fled under the circumstances.

FTFY, FW.

Spot on.

Transcript of the victims evidence, be warned it's pretty harrowing The Smoking Gun

That is the first time I have read that.

It is pretty awful.
