Sorry Mandy, I should have fleshed out my last comment. The New York Times reported that Steve Cooley, the district attorney of Los Angeles County, maintains that since Polanski fled after entering his guilty plea, but before his sentencing, the plea bargain was void and Polanski was facing all six original charges. Those charges together carried multiple years of potential jail time. So your original argument that the Swiss needed sealed testimony to determine if the 42 days of psychological evaluation should count to leave Polanski with a less than six months remaining on his sentence, and thus not be subject to extradition, does not hold water. If Polanski had waited to be sentenced, and that sentence did not adhere to what was agreed to in the plea bargain, and he fled, the Swiss might have had a better position to demand sealed testimony about the plea bargain agreement. But Polanski voided that agreement by fleeing. In the words of our fearless leader, the Swiss acted stupidly. Polanski, guilty as hell, free as a bird.
New York Times reported that because Polanski fled before sentencing, his plea agreement was void and he faced sentencing on all six original charges, which could result in many years of jail time. So naturally, the 42 days of psychological evaluation were irrelevant. What else you got?
CBS reports the actual reason is that the LA prosecutors refused to provide sealed trial transcripts to the Swiss. What business does Switzerland have determining if the California verdict was one they would agree with before turning Polanski over? If Charles Manson escaped to Switzerland after his verdict, would Swiss officials need to review sealed trial transcripts before returning him to the U.S.?
Has anyone seen Ezra and Cam Cannon at the same time? If this turns into an eight part post on the hella important place Animal Collective has in the all time top musicians of all time for evah and evah, I think I will have my answer. And, oh yeah, that band sucks donkey balls.
Breakups are a bitch. But this recording doesn't rise to the level of Baldwin's rant to his young daughter or Nicole Simpson's 911 call. And I imagine this is the way Charlie Sheen sweet talks most of his dates. If Mel wasn't conservative this wouldn't be news.
Well, he will always have the std Griffin gifted him.
A film crew tries to roast a kid and it could be a crime?The police didn’t think so and refused to press charges.
Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown.
Please don't pick on Paul, he still has a wooden leg stuck up his arse. He was awarded a knighthood for generating tax revenue to support the parasite in the palace. He was very successful with his Little Richard impersonation. He wasn't smart enough to win control of his own publishing catalog going up against Michael Jackson. Be gone with the rubbish.
Stotch, you owe me a keyboard. So funny because it is so true.
