The plea bargain would have resulted in no jail time beyond the mental evaluation Polanski already completed back then. I've got no issue standing by that original deal. If it was fine with the victim then and now, I see no reason to beat the dead horse.
But he needs to get the maximum for obstructing justice. I think that's 10 years in California (although I could have that mixed up with the Federal penalty and I can't find a clear answer).
