Coalition Calls On Legislature To Support Trafficking Survivors By Eliminating Statute Of Limitations Click For More

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, Jr., said: “It is long past time for New York State to eliminate the statute of limitations for sex trafficking and child sex trafficking. When we give survivors more time to report, they come forward. Five years is simply not enough – which the State recognized when it eliminated the statute of limitations for serious sex crimes two decades ago. I call on the legislature to help us support survivors and prosecute traffickers: pass this critical bill this session. Thank you to the bill’s sponsors, Senator Cleare and Assemblymember Dinowitz, as well as the survivors and advocates who stood with us today, for their persistence, dedication, and leadership.”
