U.S. to Switzerland: Send Roman Polanski Back!
Anita Bugge/Getty Images
A Roman holiday, this ain't: The U.S. Justice Department has formally requested to have Roman Polanski extradited from Switzerland to California to face the music for having sex with a 13-year-old girl 30 years ago.
Geneva's Justice Ministry says Switzerland's top criminal court will rule on the matter. At that point, the 76-year-old Oscar-winning filmmaker could make a last-ditch appeal to the Swiss Federal Supreme Court.
The whole process could take months. And that's bad news for the ailing Polanski, who was just denied bail after being deemed a flight risk. And things could get worse.
Should he wind up back in the states, Polanski could land a two-year prison sentence for his 1977 guilty plea to unlawful sex with a minor.
