IronFront / Yowo has altready been warned privately.

I am hereby warning him publicly.

IronFront, I feel that you are testing us ~ or trying to.

You have already been told that, if you had not been a long-term member, you would have been banned, some time ago, for deliberately stirring up the forum for no good reason, other than your own entertainment. This is what people term 'a troll'.

For now, you will be banned for one week, to give you time to decide how you will behave when you return. We shall then take it from there.

coco --

yes the person would be charged with attempted murder in the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd degree depending on the reasons and if it was premeditated and what weapon was used.

Even if you forgive them and do not wish to press charges, the state would press charges anyway and hand out punishment. They may even subpeana (sp?) you to testify.

like when families have forgiven people of the crime they committed and they are still executed for it.



guilty is guilty and thats that

I am in agreement so then it would follow that he should be arrested as innocent until proven guilty.

I am not sure - was he cinvicted and fled while awaiting sentencing or while awaiting trial? And is there a statute of limitations on the crime?

Polanski was initially indicted on six counts and faced up to life in prison.

US prosecutors want Mr Polanski to face sentencing

He pleaded guilty at the time but then fled abroad.

'.. he claimed misconduct by the judge, now deceased, who had arranged a plea bargain and then reneged on it.'
