Will rich pedophile finally face justice? Polanski arrested in Switzerland
Sunday, September 27, 2009 2:08 PM
Polanski was initially charged with rape by use of drugs, perversion, sodomy, lewd and lascivious act upon a child under 14, and furnishing a controlled substance (methaqualone) to a minor.
The grand jury transcript describes the alcohol that Polanski allegedly supplied before engaging in oral, vaginal and anal sex with the 13 year old girl, who repeatedly no to Polanski's sexual advances.
This was rape proper, after the girl had been drugged with alcohol and quaaludes. However, in a plea bargain Polanski pled guilty to simply unlawful sexual intercourse with the underage girl and was awaiting sentence when he fled to France.
