State lawmakers advocate to extend civil statute of limitations in child sex abuse cases after Interlochen report
A report on alleged child sex abuse at Interlochen Center for the Arts is prompting state lawmakers to push for extending Michigan's civil statute of limitations for survivors. The report details decades of misconduct, including claims involving Jeffrey Epstein, and highlights challenges survivors face due to expired legal deadlines. Legislation, including a one-year revival window and extending the age limit to 48, has been reintroduced in response.
