XYZ comes forward. Makes claim under new law.

Case can go forward. New charge. New Victim.

Where’s the new claim that’s based on conduct that either: (1) allegedly occurred after the Federal statute of limitations was amended in 2006 or (2) isn’t barred by the 2008 NPA? If there is, the whole problem would be solved for the U. S. Attorney, unless the claim is based on illegally seized evidence. This whole case is beginning to stink because there’s no indication that the U. S. Attorney has come up with anything that doesn’t run afoul of one of the two noted criteria.

A new law won’t fix it...you can’t retroactively enforce criminal laws like that.

it would have to be a law that covered current behavior. Like it’s now illegal to contact anyone you sexually abused in the past...then he contacts them and wammo it’s now illegal.
