It wouldn’t be too hard to find the rapist if McSally was serious.
And said rapist can still be prosecuted under the UCMJ, even if they were retired.
Of course...McSally could also be prosecuted for making a false allegation.
In February of 2018, in the case of Major General James Grazioplene, 68, of Gainesville, Virginia, the Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces, or CAAF, set the statute of limitations on rape cases at five years.
Grazioplene had been charged with raping a 46 year old victim in a series of rapes when she was a minor during the late 1970’s through the late 1980’s.
At the time of some of the offenses, there was no statute of limitations under the Uniform Code of Military Justice.
I meant to sat that there was no statute of limitations on the offense of RAPE under the UCMJ, since it contained a potential death sentence.
The CAAF set aside the UCMJ death penalty for rape offenses to be in accordance with Supreme Court rulings on the death penalty and rape convictions.
