cannot say for sure, but saw one lawyer say today that while rape has no statute of limitations, the incident, as described would fall under misdemeanor assault, in Maryland, and that does have a statute of limitation. I'm not an attorney, nor in Maryland, so I can't vouch.

"Both (first degree rape and first degree assault) are felonies with no statute of limitations in Maryland."https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/kavanaughs-accuser-deserves-a-fair-criminal-investigation/2018/09/19/c0605ec4-bc1a-11e8-97f6-0cbdd4d9270e_story.html?utm_term=.4e55e0e7064c …

Right. But the lawyer said the description in MD she gave would fall undet misdemeanor assault. I have no idea
-
I thought it said no statute of limitations for the felonies?
-
Yes but I guess he is saying it isn't felony assault. what she described, but 2nd or 3rd degree in MD, a misdemeanor
-
Where did he say that?
-
I didn't save the tweet

Would be up to a prosecutor to decide if it would fly with a jury

It’s alleged!! This dim witted publication fails to mention that.

#Yawn.....We can see the tactic here.#ConfirmKavanaughNow -
Why would you want someone who would do that as a permanent judge?
#GreedOverPeople?#GreedyOldPerverts? -
Done what?? No proof of anything other than dirty politics.

This man Kavanaugh is still the same guy who held down a girl and sexually assaulted her. No excuse for that and it should automatically eliminate him from a SCOTUS appointment. The GOP is certainly playing dirty politics.

Silence is a Killer.....She should be ready to roll come Monday right? Would you want to wait for an FBI investigation if allegations are true? I want to hear her....Believe me, if there's something there (highly unlikely) Im all in on him not getting confirmed...
-
The question alone should eliminate him. If she has to do this, charges should be filed against him if he is proven to be lying. GOP just love an opportunity to victim shame a woman. Where did all the $$ come from? GOP been grooming him for decades.

Really? so...Let see "A Few Decades from Now...a Non-politician will be elected...Meh..Give or take around 2016! By then, Kavs Should be good to go" Really???? As for victim shaming like Hillary Clinton???? Come On!

They knew they'd have the House and Senate bc GOP has coordinated a gerrymandering and voter suppression campaigns well as culture war with pastors and NRA; also for decades. Hillary is a F'N Republican. She's just makin noise now bc she thinks she can take advantage. Yes.
