Lawyer: New alleged Polanksi sex victim to talk
Allred said she would explain later in the day why her client waited several decades to come forward. She did not say whether the woman was underage at the time of alleged offense. Polanski's defense lawyer did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The Oscar-winning director pleaded guilty to having unlawful sex with a 13-year-old girl in 1977 but fled to Europe before he was sentenced. He left the country after learning that the judge might not go along with the short jail term he expected to get in exchange for his guilty plea.
