X-Men Director Accused of Sexual Abuse

You mean the Elmo guy whose lawsuits were TOSSED OUT.

Tossed out because they didn't meet the statute of limitations. Some states have no time limit for these kinds of things, and others do. It usually exists because evidence that may have proven someone innocent may have been lost due to time.

In my state Rape has no limit. However this case will most likely fall under Hawaii's limitations [https://www.rainn.org/public-policy/legal-resources/hawaii/statutes-of-limitations]. It's ether

For a class A felony, within six years after commission of the offense

or

For any felony offense under § 707, during any time when the victim is alive and under 18 years of age

I'm not a lawyer so I'm unsure which applies.

seems only fair since the x-men movies raped my childhood.

More has come out about this story which makes the headline clear. A man named Collins-Rector, who is on the sex offenders register, is alleged to abused plaintiff at age 15. Bryan Singer is alleged to have become involved when the plaintiff was aged 17.
