Bob Dylan’s Accuser Expands Timeframe For When Sexual Abuse Allegedly Occurred
New York Post ^ | January 3, 2022 | Priscilla DeGregory

The woman who accused Bob Dylan of sexually abusing her in New York City on multiple occasions decades ago when she was just 12, has expanded the timeframe for when the abuse allegedly occurred — following prior reports that the songwriter was away on tour during the time of her claims, new court papers show.

The 68-year-old woman — who filed suit anonymously in August under the initials J.C. — claimed that the “Blowin’ in the Wind” singer groomed her and plied her with drugs and alcohol before allegedly sexually abusing her as a pre-teen multiple times at his Chelsea Hotel apartment over the course of six weeks in April and May of 1965.

Soon after, reporting emerged that the 80-year-old musician was away on tour for most of April and May that year.

At some point, the answer my friend, is blowing in the wind.

As it should be.

55 year old allegations.

That’s absurd.

May of 1965. That was 56 years ago. In NYS, the statute of limitations is 5 years for sexual assault civil cases:

New York Civil Practice Law and Rules 213-c

Generally within five years of date of incident

Statute provides that actions for civil damages for defined sexual crimes, including sexual abuse of a minor, may be brought within five years of the acts constituting the sexual offense

This isn’t criminal, it’s civil.

It says “generally,” meaning there might be exeptions?

Used to be even the complete degenerate pervs though pedophiles were scum. Nowadays everything is celebrated, and pedophilia is just the next thing they want to normalize. They’ve hit rock bottom, they are going to have to start drilling and blasting to sink any lower.

It also say “may” be brought within five years of the act which is a little confusing in that the word “must” is not used.

wouldn’t be a bit surprised if it is true - but making claims 55 years later is absurd and indefensible - literally - how does one defend themselves against something that supposedly happened 55 years ago?

He is probably a leftist, so these claims will go nowhere, and will barely make it to the news - unlike Kavenaugh.

Without evidence, whether it’s true or not, we can’t do this.

We can’t just have people destroying people’s public and private lies by mere assertions.

Happened to me too (not with Bob. . .) but I have no evidence and accept that. Not every crime can be proven.
