Officially expelled from the Academy. Why now?

Let due process happen? Yeah, right. The case could, could have been over in 1997, however, the judge in that case also sought fame in that he wanted Polanski on television. Polanski explicitly asked for the hearing to be in camera which means without the media present. That judge denied it as he knew it wouldn't give him the publicity he wanted. The same thing with Espinoza and Findler in the current case. The Circuit Court of appeals who handled the appeal from 2009/2010 said for Judge Peter Espinoza to sentence Polanski in absentia, something Geimer wanted as well as her lawyer. Both were on board with that. It was Espinoza who refused to take the remedy handed down by the higher court and wanted Polanski present in California in effect wanting the perp walk Polanski refuses to give them and the media. And yes there are a whole lot of people calling for him to be castrated. Apparently you haven't kept up. Due process would be finished if the Superior Court would accept the Circuit Court of Appeals' remedy in the absentia sentencing. Done. Over. Move on! This is all on Steve Cooley and Peter Espinoza. Cooley was running for California AG when HE politicized Polanski. The one who won that race Kamala Harris stated herself it was all political with Cooley. And now Cooley's acolyte Jackie Lacy is following suit. And this is what Samantha Geimer had to say to Lacy:

RE: The State of California vs Roman Polanski & Roman Raymond Polanski vs The Superior Court of Los Angeles
District Attorney Lacey and Deputy District Attorney Hannisee:

Attached please find my correspondence to you dated over 3 years ago, January 24, 2014, along with your reply, dated over six weeks later, stating your “preparedness” to proceed if the case was again brought before you.



My wishes that you act on my behalf as the victim in this case to investigate the misconduct that occurred fell upon deaf ears, along with my request that you act upon the instructions of the Dec. 21, 2009, Opinion of the Second Appellate Court of Appeal of the State of California, Second Appellate District. In particular, the aforementioned Opinion stated that the Court is deeply concerned that these allegations of misconduct have not been addressed.



Further, “Polanski’s allegations urgently require full exploration and then, if indicated, curative action for the abuses alleged here. Time continues to pass, and the delay in addressing this matter has already removed one participant from the ranks of the available witnesses for an evidentiary hearing on the judicial and prosecutorial misdeeds that have been alleged here. The passage of more time before this case’s final resolution will further hamper the search for the truth and the delivery of any appropriate relief, and it will also prolong the agony that the lack of finality in this matter continues to cause Samantha Geimer. We all exhort all participants in this extended drama to place the integrity of the criminal justice system above the desire to punish any one individual, whether for his offense or his flight.”



I have read the PEOPLES OPPOSITION TO: (1) RENEWED MOTION TO UNSEAL THE SWORN TESTIMONY OF DEPUTY DISTRICT ATTORNEY ROGER GUNSON; AND (2) MOTION TO RECONSIDER COURT’S APRIL 3, 2017 ORDER.



I am outraged that you continue to cover up the misconduct that has occurred in this case, which began 40 years ago and continues today. I have spent 40 years with a boot on my neck filled by one powerful man after another, standing on a 13 year old rape victim’s suffering to further their own purposes and to serve themselves, and sickened that it has now been filled by women.



You refuse to investigate the truth, you seek to hide testimony and defame those who produce relevant evidence and facts with accusations of criminal activity, facts you ignore to serve yourselves. I cannot help but see the irony of behavior that mimics the despicable behavior of our new administration in Washington, DC. So, I say to you, DO YOUR JOB! Stop making excuses, stop passing the buck, stop covering up what should be investigated and the very responsibility for which you were elected.



If you will not do the right, moral and legally required thing and stop covering up and withholding facts, I can only hope when the truth comes out as it always does, that you both are still around to have your reputations suffer as they should. You and those have come before you have never protected me, you have treated me with contempt, using a crime committed against me to further your own careers. You have treated Marci’s Law as you treat the victims who you are meant to protect, with disregard and callousness.

There is a Rorer 714, though.
