The
movement to eliminate and revive expired statutes of limitations (SOLs)
for child sex abuse made significant progress in 2015. It also inspired
a new and related SOL reform movement for all rape victims, young and
old, as the SOLs became a major factor in the dozens of out-of-statute
allegations against Bill Cosby, as I discuss here.
Finally, there is a decided trend in SOL reform that needs to be stemmed and reversed before our children will be safe: legislators’ willingness to let institutions off the hook.
