Group Pressing Iowa to Drop Child Sexual Abuse Statute of Limitations

By Jason Taylor Mar 15, 2021 IOWA - A national group is calling for Iowa to change its statute of limitations for child sexual abuse. The group Child USA wants the state legislature to pass a bill in the Senate that would let victims to sue or press charges at any age. The state currently allows victims to pursue criminal charges until age 33, and only four years to file a civil lawsuit. The group points to a study showing victims of child sexual abuse first come forward at an average age of 52. The legislation also gives adult survivors of child sex abuse three years from the bill’s passage to bring claims.

Iowa case shows foreign exchange programs can be playground for predators

Des Moines Register A Council Bluffs man working as a foreign exchange student coordinator faces life in prison for sexually abusing international students for whom he was entrusted to find safe homes. The case exemplifies the vulnerability of foreign exchange students  seeking education and new experiences thousands of miles from home and the absence of adequate oversight of the programs that lure them to America, advocates for sexual abuse victims say. Thomas D. Boatright, 51, pleaded guilty this month to four counts of coercion and enticement of a minor, each of which carries a mandatory minimum of 10 years in prison and a maximum sentence of life.
