She was only 13 when the Chinatown director drugged and raped her in 1977. The now 81-year old has been on the move ever since, first fleeing the U.S. for Europe in 1978.

But it seems Geimer – now 51 – has had ample time to lick her wounds and regroup.

“He pleaded guilty and served his sentence and, although he fled, he was fleeing a corrupt and unethical judge.”

Samantha also claims she’s exchanged emails with Polanski and is in full support of her rapist: “If they subpoenaed me, I’d have to appear, but I wouldn’t otherwise cooperate in any prosecution of Roman Polanski.”
