The latest bizarre twist in Woody's career comes courtesy of Samantha Geimer — who went public as Roman Polanski's 13-year-old victim in the 1977 assault. She was drugged and raped by Polanski at the home of Jack Nicholson, with the director later fleeing Hollywood for Europe to avoid serving a prison sentence. Samantha later publicly forgave Polanski, and now she's accusing Dylan Farrow of lying about Woody!

Dylan has repeatedly claimed that Woody molested her at the age of seven — when he was still involved with Mia Farrow, before leaving the actress for her daughter Soon-Yi. Mia's son Moses, however, has insisted: “Woody did not molest my sister!"

Instead, Moses has claimed, his furious mother had brainwashed Dylan to make the shocking accusations in the wake of Woody running off with Soon-Yi. Samantha has now publicly backed Moses' statements — and went to social media to declare: "#IBelieveMoses."

It's a bizarre twist in the long-running controversy — made even more tragic by Mia herself defending the "Rosemary's Baby" director as a "loyal friend," joining other supportive actors who embraced Polanski after he went on the run as a child molester. Samantha has also been quoted by Woody's defenders in the past, having forgiven Polanski while saying: "Refrain from jumping to conclusions about the guilt of a person who is accused, but not charged with or convicted of a crime."

Dylan still has the support of family members Ronan Farrow and Daisy Previn — but Moses has once again gone public with his own insistence that Mia brainwashed his sister. "Some day," he wrote, "I hope Dylan can escape from my mother, confront the truth and begin her own healing."
