A California lawmaker plans to introduce legislation that would
eliminate the statute of limitations on rape and some sexual assault
cases, joining a handful of other U.S. states that have made the same
move.
State Sen. Connie M. Leyva, D-Chino, said Monday that when the new legislative session begins in January, she will propose scrapping the 10-year statute of limitations on rape cases. The proposed bill would also apply to sexual assault cases involving lewd or lascivious acts, child sexual abuse, oral sex and sexual penetration.
