Ah, a new talking point.

And yet, the very first entry in a search for “maryland” + “sexual assault” + “statute of limitations” tells us that it varies quite a bit, and only felony-level crimes have no SoL.

This distinction will be willfully ignored by MSNBC, Feinstein, moveon.org, et al.

If what she described actually occurred, it would be a felony.

Threw her down on the bed, felt her up, tried to remove her clothing, covered her mouth with his hand etc.

And, therefore, no time limit.

From your link

In Maryland, the criminal statute of limitations varies depending on the severity of the offense. The criminal statutes of limitations include:

Felony sexual offenses: no statute of limitations, and

Misdemeanor offenses: one year from the event.

Nope, way past the limit. Doubt it would have gotten to a misdemeanor offense since, according to the as yet no fully presented letter, no genitals or boobs were involved. Not even a stolen kiss. Not physical marks or bruises. No ripped or disheveled clothing. It was a non-event.
