Roman Polanski (Image: wikipedia.com) |
The Department of Justice, fresh from its disgraceful hounding of whistleblowers (sorry, liberals, but that's the truth), has found time to spare to continue its decades-long hunt for Roman Polanski.
The most recent episode of "Get Roman" took place in Warsaw, where the Polish-born director of The Pianist was visiting. According to a BBC report, Polanski was questioned by Polish prosecutors at the behest of the United States for several hours before he was released. The Feds wanted Polanski extradited to the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave, so that he would serve a jail term for a 1977 conviction for having sex with a minor. Hey, why waste your time crimestopping "Eastern European" cyberhackers when you can corral a 77-year-old global celebrity who is a convicted sex offender?
Ironically, Polanski went to his native land to attend the opening of the
Museum of the History of Polish Jews. The
BBC story did not indicate whether American government representatives attended the event, if they acknowledged Polanski's presence, or if these tone-deaf representatives of "justice" knew about Polanski's suffering and survival as a child in Nazi-occupied Poland.
