Federal Statute of Limitations
Sounds like something may have to be done. Make it a law that if you get raped molested etc, you have X number of years to report or it goes away completely and the accuser after the statute goes to jail.
"I was too scared to come forward" nonsense will end. They can be scared of going to jail if they don't bring it up. This is a choice they make and should have to deal with the consequences.
There may be thousands of excuses not to come forward at the time, so lets make one darn good one to offset them.
I have to remind the whiney excuse makers that when working with heavy equipment it don't care. You stick your finger where it don't belong, it is gone, makes no difference what your excuse is.
Shouldn't need a law to "keep your hands out of the wood chipper", but it has come to this. Another layer of bureaucracy and enforcement for something that should make sense.

This whole nonsense has nothing to do with what may have taken place 36 years ago. It's all about protecting ROE VS WADE from any sort of challenge from any potential quarter. 0 -
There seems to be some confusion and some elasticity and some open interpretation on the issue in the liberal courts by liberal judges and liberal media...
Does the statute of limitations clock start from the moment the crime takes place or from the moment the crime is reported...
When the statute of limitations is close to running out can the district attorney modify the charges or bring different / additional charges and essentially reset the clock...
If the "victim" is a minor some seem to believe the clock does not start until they are 18 or 21 and have reached their majority
A continuance or modification often seems to confuse the issue
In many cases hate crime charges are brought at the last minute - amending or adding on to the original complaint or charge list
There seems to be quite a bit of room for error or slipperiness
I am not opining pro or con - our system is analogous to a pendulum and at times swings to far right or to far left - when at polar opposites it's often unfair
However when it's in the middle and both the right and left are simultaneously unhappy it's usually a sign that the courts got it right
I would be interested in hearing your point of view - or seeing it through your personal lens - as I am not a legal scholar

I don't recall seeing this wonderful suggestion applied here to the children molested by priests.
Perhaps someone can explain that.

The shear does not care if you are a minor or not, your finger is gone if you put it in the blades. That responsibility lies on the child or child's parents.

au contraire mon fr?re, for instance there should be a clear delineation of right and wrong. Please refer to hands where they don't belong and getting chopped off, clear consequence for stupidity or willful challenging of supreme law.

Guys sometimes we disagree or are at odds with each other...
But I do value your input and viewpoint and opinion - the discourse and debate or banter is valuable to me.
I often wax philosophic and attempt to interject some witty parte - not necessarily because I think I am smarter or superior or "right" but because the fallout dialogue sometimes spreads like thought ripples in the pond of my mind
And I try to learn from it.

We all know IF she had accused Kavanaugh back than nothing would have come of it. It was a alleged event even then unless Judge collaborated her statements.
35 years later, saved for days before confirmation vote it is just a political chess move.
I think the same about the guys coming out about a Priest diddling them, if you wait until two days before the Priest is made the Pope probably motivated by other reasons then all of the sudden the need to come out.0 -

If she had accused him back when it happened and nothing happened regardless of fabrication or truth, then brought it up today, that is a whole different ballgame.0 -
who cares even if this whore got drunk and let someone grab her tit 35 or four score and seven years ago. Its the circus du senate...
