Someone (AG?) suggested he could have withdrawn the guilty plea. Had he done so, he might have felt that he wasn't going to get a fair trail. The "fair trial" language was the NYT reviewer's not mine. I quoted from the NYT review, which PLF posted the link to, to answer Fugee's question about what it said. This was probably clear to everyone else, but apparently not you.
I don't think there is any question about what should happen if Polanski is subject to U.S. jurisdiction. I just question the wisdom of efforts to make that happen.
