I just didn’t quite know how to get myself out of there.” Geimer testified that Polanski performed various sexual acts on her,[13][14][15] after giving her a combination of champagne and quaaludes.[16] In the 2003 interview, Geimer says she resisted. “I said no several times, and then, well, gave up on that.”[17]

Others have cited the drugged part. But if you’re arguing that the mother is worse for letting her kid get raped by Roman Polanski, don’t you have to accept the premise that sex with Roman Polanski is bad? That is, why Polanski off the hook just because the mother is also bad?
