Ok I'm a 16 year old and my parents and a friend of mine parents are filling charges for statutory rape. Mines being on a lower level than my friends. What is the length of time after the incident that I can file charges...

What do you have to file charges for?

Well im filling charges because when i was 13 this 24 year old was basically feeling on me and to my knowledege the definition of statutory rape is sexual relations with a person who has not reached the statutory age of consent and touching is still sexual relations.

The statute of limitations vary from state to state.

I know what that is I'm trying to find out like how long after the incident happen can I charge them... like it happened like two of three years ago... can I still charge them if I have enough evidence and witnesses

You'd have to attempt to file with the Police and see if they'll accept your report. Sometimes they do; sometimes they don't.

Why did you wait so long to file charges?

So what state do you live in?

You are now going to be considered a predator yourself
How so? Did I miss something?

I think I may have misread that. My apologies.

You are now going to be considered a predator yourself, this will not make your case to prove easy.



What did I miss?

I misread this to read that the charge against this person was at a lower level than the friend.

Thank goodness! I thought I was losing it!
