    Someone else could be in trouble.

    As a former clinician there are legal reports to be made if one is told/suspects ANY TYPE OF ABUSE regardless of when it occurred. I had to fill out a suspected abuse report with one copy going to the client's file, the other to my superior. He had to read/endorse and send to the clinic director for the same thing. One copy went to the state of Ohio, the other to the appropriate law enforcement agency. I then had to follow up within 24 hours with the police to document what they were doing and document it in the charts. This report happened in 2012 and in Ohio would have been reported, why not in her state? The clinician could lose their license in this case or at least punishment from the American Psychological Association.

    How could they know if she didn't tell them ?
    If I understand it correctly, she didn't mention it to anyone until 2012.

      IF her clinician knew in 12, why no report?

          There were so many bogus reports filed in the 90's due to staff covering their arses, the system was clogged and innocent people were wrongly accused. Things start to sort themselves out a little and all of a sudden the fingerpointing begins due to poorly written and outdated knee jerk rules and regs.

            Under the Maryland Criminal Code the Statute of limitations for Assault or Rape (and I would guess attempted rape?) has no time limit.

            https://www.lawyers.com/legal-info/c...mitations.html

            That's my hangup with all this - the purported crimes fall under State law and the jurisdiction of the various police agencies of Maryland, not Federal law and the jurisdiction of the FBI.

            Why isn't she screaming for Maryland to open a criminal case.

            She is stoking the fires of the "I Don't Believe MeToo" movement.
