How the fuck is there a statute of limitations for rape in New York?

[Drich]

Here's a thought...

IF it takes a woman or man waits 5 years to report a rape... it wasn't.

If someone drills you in the can and you seriously did not want to be drilled in the can, then why wait over 5 years to report it?

It is far more likely that alleged 'victim' seeks or see to further benefit from said can drilling by changing their consent status. After all how can one prove consent? Now how can one prove consent after such a long time? oh, that's right they don't say anything for more than 5 years.

So how does NY have a statute of limitations on rape? Because at one time the state law makers had a modicum of common sense.

There are a lot of reasons why women don't report being raped. It is not an uncommon thing at all. If there is enough evidence to support the rape years after it happened, I don't see why it can't be investigated and the criminal brought to justice.

What is so hard to understand that you can not prove intent, or more specifically consent? one day after... let alone 5 years later.

Consent is the only difference between sex and rape.

And consent because it is in the mind with no absolute DNA clad proof tied to it can be changed as an after thought especially when tied to emotion. Look at Lady for campus' posts for an example of truth being traded to support an emotion built narrative.

The ONLY (not good) but ONLY means we have to discern consent is time.

Meaning if there was a rape it has been determined that in the state of NY that 5 years separates sex from rape.

Rape being defined as unlawful sexual activity.

When I say if in the state of new york (or any state with a SoL) a Rape is not Reported with in that SoL, the sexual act can not be identified as unlawful, as the law allows only a ______ year window to report said rape. Therefore in the eyes of the law despite what happened the sex act can not be considered unlawful. It becomes unwanted sex.
