    Default Statute of Limitations for Aggravated Sexual Assault on Minor

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Florida

    My brother is being accused of an aggravated sexual assault (gun involving rape) that allegedly occurred 14 years ago when the alleged victim was 13 years old.

    He is going through a very nasty divorce and his wife has blackmailed the parties’ 16 year old daughter that if she tries to see or live with her dad she will get him thrown in prison. She since battered the child who ran away and is now living with my brother. There is a protection for injunction against the mother on behalf of the daughter.

    The mother is now telling DCF workers, police officers and everyone who will listen that my brother committed this crime and has indicated that there are pending charges with the State Attorney’s office.

    Would a State Attny pick this type of charge up after all the time that has transpired with only hearsay evidence during a nasty custody battle?

    I guess you haven't been watching the news.

    Does the name "Roman Polanski" ring a bell?

    So the victim is now 27?

    I will check for certain... but I think he could still be charged...

    I don't know what the chances are.

    Wait a minute!

    Was this an unsolved crime or did the parties know each other? Was a John Doe warrant issued?

    The parties knew each other. The victim is the cousin of the soon to be ex-wife.
