UPDATE: BRENDAN GIBBONS COULD BE FORMALLY CHARGED WITH "RAPE" AT ANY TIME IN THE FUTURE

This is to clarify the "statute-of-limitations" for First Degree Criminal Sexual Conduct in the State of Michigan. I had reported last week that the S-O-L for CSC in the 1st degree was 10 years. In fact, there is no S-O-L for that crime. The original story has been updated and you can find it here.

If you don't want to check back to the original story, here is the key point:

The victim in this case can still press charges against Gibbons, as there is no statute-of-limitations for first-degree criminal sexual assault in the State of Michigan. The S-O-L for other degrees of CSC range from six years to ten years, depending on the severity of the crime. Here is the link, read it for yourself. If the local police recommended charges on first-degree sexual assault, and if the prosecutor wants to bring it forward, the victim has the rest of her life to move forward with prosecution.

This information completely debunks the claims that Gibbons has been "cleared" in any way of the charges originally made against him by the local police.
