[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The therapist is a mandatory reporter. They had to go to police.

The police have to investigate. They dont' have to file charges, but they do need to investigate. Otherwise, people would be mad if police did not investigate reports of crimes.

There is no statute of limitations on _most_ crimes like this in MD, with a few exceptions like a fourth degree sex offense. Here's the list of all of them:

Request an SVID (special victims unit.. that's what they call it in MoCo) detective do the questioning.

[b]My guess is nothing will come out of it since "he said, she said" is difficult to prove, especially 10 years later. However, they'll have that person on file so if they get more reports, that can help in future investigations. If this person really is an abuser, they tend to do it to more than one victim, so your DD"s cooperation can help another potential victim down the line[/b].[/quote]

Thank you! Finally a rational post that doesn't jump to extreme conclusions. [/quote]

I also appreciated the post, and also think nothing is likely to come of it. Understood that it all feels very uncomfortable and anxiety-producing right now. I do not think OP needs to find a lawyer for the daughter. [/quote]
