There's also a thing that a part of surviving and moving on, sometimes one starts a family, moves, gets kids, really tries to put it past them, until one realizes that they can't. And then they file these lawsuits and are blamed for that. So it's somehow implied that we are supposed to do all the healing on our own too. Like with rape reporting there should be a chance, that we are not supposed to blow. I'm angry with you.
Dear ONTD lawyers, could you please be so kind to comment when does the one year window start per that statute? And a more general question. As far as I understand, rape cases have to be trialed in the city where rape happened. Does that mean that those incidents happened in NY?
