The Swiss Justice Ministry has refused to extradite Roman Polanski to the United States. U. S. officials want Polanski back on a charge of having sex with a teenager in 1977. Swiss officials say U. S. authorities failed to provide testimony relating to Polanski's sentencing procedure.
Case Closed
Because Uncle Sam withheld certain facts,
Roman Polanski can finally relax.
What the Swiss saw as essential,
U.S. courts called confidential
Thus the Swiss have officially ended their mission
And refused the demand for the man's extradition.
The prosecution, it seems, has suffered a blow,
Since Mr. Polanski is now free to go.
