AP misstates Polanski plea bargain

As part of an AP article about Roman Polanski’s effort to be released on bail (seriously!), they write:

Polanski pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of unlawful sexual intercourse. In exchange, the judge agreed to drop the remaining charges and sentence him to prison for a 90-day psychiatric evaluation.

This is false. As Patterico documents, the judge never agreed any such thing.

(Via Patterico.)
