Bill Clinton is hoping that too.

Right now, the statute of limitations for rape cases varies on the felony level: 15 years for a Class A, eight years for Class B and four years for a Class C or D.
But legislators in the Tennessee House have unanimously passed a bill eliminating the statute of limitations on rape cases filed within three years of the crime.
"I think it sends a strong message to our community that we care about survivors," Stevenson said. "And we're going to go after the people making the choice to rape no matter how long it takes."
The move came in response to a huge backlog in Memphis, where some 12,000 rape kits are waiting to be processed.
It sounds to me as if the statue of limitations may be very close to expiring, but perhaps has not yet. I assume that a child victim of rape is a Class A, and thus a 15 year limit. Again I assume, that limit would not expire until the month the rape was alleged to have occurred. But since he was arrested in September of 2016, then it was within the 15 year limitation.
