Abstract:

Sexual assault cases based on events that took place years ago can be difficult cases for all involved. This bulletin provides a resource for judges and lawyers involved in sexual assault cases based on conduct before 2001. The bulletin lists the most commonly charged offenses in sexual assault cases and tracks the evolution of those charges between 1950 and 2000. It also describes the major sentencing regimes before structured sentencing and addresses the issue of sex offender registration and monitoring as it concerns older cases.
