That exactly what I think as well. Even in circumstances like this, I believe the principles of accusatory law over inquisitionary law must be maintained. The victim must be the person who decides whether or not proceedings should continue. Interesting and sensible comments by Samantha Geimer were in the LA Times when Polanski was up for an Oscar.
