He didn't rape her, he had sex with her when she was 13. Not that it's not a big deal but obviously, the girl (who is 40ish now) wants the charges to be dropped so what's the use in holding him in custody ?

I agree. The victim wants the charges dropped, so they really should be. But this really isn't some miscarriage of justice like some are making it out to be, and it's still hard to feel bad for the guy.

He had sex with a 13year old girl, end of the story. It's illegal in the States (and in France too). He had to be punished for that, I'm all for it but 30 years after ?

You're kind of leaving out an important detail of the story, one that the article you linked also conveniently avoided.
People, don't feel sorry for this chump.

Raping a 13 year old using alcohol and quaaludes is ok if you're a famous artist. Well, not ok, but come on. He's lived in luxury for the last 30 years, making the films he wants and hobnobbing with whomever he pleases. Hasn't the man paid enough? And the victim is so sick of the publicity that stems from what he did to her that she'd rather have the charges dropped than for her family to keep being the focus of so much unwanted attention. She's completely over the whole "being anally raped as a child by a forty-year old man" thing! Can't we get over it too?

she wants them dropped not because he isnt guilty, but because its putting her husband, herself and her kids through a lot of emotional grief.
the guy is a child molester whether he makes films that are good or not is of little consequence to this
Read the whole damn story and until then shut the fuck up.
i did read the whole story and this is the part that stuck out to me
Mr Polanski fled the US in 1978 after pleading guilty to unlawful sexual intercourse with an underage girl.
so if joe the plumber was really good at fixing pipes, his raping a underage girl, something we call around these parts, a pedophile, he should be excused cause hes just too good at his job
sorry, wont shut up about a child rapist, no matter how old he or what not
Yah good ol' Ro' had the decency to ask the child if she was on the pill (really, what 13 year old girl isn't?), when she said she wasn't good ol' Ro' had the decency to stick it in her ass and blow his load...didn't want to get the child pregnant...just thinking about her well-being he was.
Did I mention the quaaludes?

Such high moral grounds Peeps, it's stunning. But what about what the victim said herself ? What about context ? You guys, as most americans, love to pass judgment on people, especially when you don't know shit. Noone said he did a good thing but the woman wants charges dropped and not because she's scared of whatever, so maybe they should be dropped? There must be other cases deal with. Meanwhile innocents are still being executed in your country and noone gives a shit, noone knows where Bin Laden is, etc etc. But man it feels good to point fingers, doesn't it. Bunch of hypocrites.

Fascinating argument...really...I mean it.
Folks, regardless of the circumstances surrounding Mr. Polanski's arrest, he deserves any punishment he gets.
His behaviour in this matter was deviant, criminal, and inexcusable. Frankly, I'll be upset if he doesn't get significant jail time.
This man does not deserve any pity.

So because other, worse, things occur in the world/US we should totally ignore lesser crimes? Hey guys, i dont care that there is a serial rapist in your neighborhood, there are murders goin on!!
and it always works out well when a female victim of a violent crime changes their mind on charges. Obviously the crime never occured in the first place

Sounds kinda like this guy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ira_Einhorn. As per usual, this is just an excuse to demonize the American justice system, regardless of the facts of the case.
