What else is there to say? Because a whole bunch of years went by, it should be forgotten since he directed some great movies?
That he plead guilty as a part of a plea bargain that the Prosecutor and Judge agreed to and then after he plead guilty and served his sentence as ordered, the Judge reneged on the agreement?
The guy is scum but he wasn't given the opportunity for a fair trial and sentencing.

I'm not talking about the getting him back in jail as much as should people just forget what he actually did because he directed movies?
The justice system is screwed, we know that and so I guess I can understand him running. But so many Hollywood people come to his defense like it's ok that he raped a 13 yo because the judge was screwy.

The judge has a right to change his mind based new evidence and/or changes in the case (new details, etc.). Based on the details, he deserved more than the plea bargain. If the plea bargain would've gone through, that would've been unfair.

He did not serve his time. He agreed to 90 days of evaluation BEFORE sentencing. Prior to that, his attorney believed the prosecution and judge would agree to probation at sentencing. He caught wind that the judge changed his mind so he fled.
Until sentencing, nothing is set in stone. Judges also don't have to agree with the prosecutions leanings.
Polanski drugged and raped a 13 year old. He should have rotted in jail.
