Polanski
If you haven't heard by now, Roman Polanski has been detained by Swiss police in conjunction with the warrant here in the US.
Why now? He's been a fugitive for 30+ years, traveling freely through most of Europe even in and out of Switzerland (and aren't they supposed to be neutral?).
I have mixed feelings. On one hand, he was convicted and ran. If it was anyone else (not someone famous) they would have been caught/extradited long ago.
On the other hand, the charges of impropriety during the trial and the victim herself saying let the case drop because she doesn't want to deal with the media attention on her and her family... even if the case is dropped the media attention will never go away.
Thoughts?
