Anyone who thinks an adult telling about being molested as a child is a liar --

109. Show me the New York law that makes that true/ edited to include info on NY law

The crime occurred 23 years ago. Dylan says the abuse stopped at that time. Some states have fairly generous statutes of limitations for child abuse, meaning they give a certain period of time after the person turns 18. They do not allow twelve years, however. If there is some NY law to the contrary, I would be interested in seeing it.

Edited to include NY law:

Five years.

Criminal law itself is in this document. Look alphabetically for NY. http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&frm=1&source=web&cd=4&cad=rja&ved=0CDsQFjAD&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ndaa.org%2Fpdf%2FStatute%2520of%2520Limitations%2520for%2520Prosecution%2520of%2520Offenses%2520Against%2520Children%25202012.pdf&ei=M0LvUu_HDOm0yAG3qIHoCg&usg=AFQjCNHoWbqMuPSv4cxyXvfx-SM-UXLRIg&sig2=Kv84eUzogpXDAFvLO_br-Q

Civil Statutes.

In New York, there is no extended statute of limitations for sexual abuse; however, if the abuse is treated as an intentional tort, New York's SOL is one year. N.Y. Civil Prac. Law § 215. If the victim brings a claim against a church or school which administered the perpetrator, or any action that is based in negligence, rather than criminal behavior, the SOL is 3 years—N.Y. Civil Prac. Law § 214. New York adopted a special statute of limitations for victims of sexual crimes in 2006—N.Y. Civil Prac. Law §213-c. The statute provides that actions for civil damages for defined sexual crimes, including sexual abuse of a minor, may be brought within 5 years of the acts constituting the sexual offense.
