Samantha
Geimer,
who
was
raped
by
Roman
Polanski
in
1977,
is
very
upset
with
the
justice
system.
Geimer
was
raped
when
she
was
13
and
she
is
now
in
her
mid-40s.
The
woman
was
recently
on
an
interview
with
Good
Morning
America.
Meanwhile,
she
said
that
decades-long
legal
pursuit
has
hurt
her
more
than
the
director
ever
did.
Talking
to
the
host
of
Good
Morning
America,
she
said,
“What
I
want
people
to
know
is
that
they
don't
understand
what
happened.
They
don't
understand
how
poorly
the
courts
handled
it,
the
misconduct
that
went
on
in
the
original
case
and
how
the
situation
has
been
used
for
the
benefit
of
judges
or
district
attorneys.
These
things
have
caused
way
more
damage
than
Polanski
has
ever
done."
Asked
why
she
does
not
like
to
say
it
was
rape,
she
said
"Well
it
was,
because
I
was
13.
But
he
didn't
mean
to
hurt
me,
he
thought
it
was
all
right
and
I
was
just
scared
and
it
was
bad," she
said.
"But
it
wasn't
as
bad
as
grand
jury
testimony,
it
wasn't
as
bad
as
having
my
sons
traumatized
by
paparazzi.
You
shouldn't
be
damaged
more
by
the
court
than
by
the
crime."
She
was
saddened
the
most
because
her
sons
were
exposed
to
the
same
media
frenzy
that
she
was
as
a
child.
"My
sons
should
never
have
had
to
know
what
it's
like
to
deal
with
that," the
women
said.
In
the
back
of
their
mind,
they
know
something
bad
happened
to
mom
and
they
don't
really
want
to
hear
about
it.
That
shouldn't
have
happened
to
them.
They
shouldn't
have
had
to
deal
with
that.
So,
yeah,
I'm
angry,"
Geimer
added.
