As I near the end of my series on family-related laws passed by the
33rd Guam Legislature, I turn my attention to statute that’s received
tremendous public attention since its passage in September 2016 — Public
Law 33-187. This law removed the statute of limitations for acts of
sexual assault and allowed long ago sexual assault victims to sue both
the abuser and those institutions that failed to stop the abuse.
Since the law passed, more than 50 people have filed lawsuits against the Catholic Church. A few cases have also been filed against the Boy Scouts of America. There is a strong probability more lawsuits will follow.
