French lawmakers have introduced a bill that would eliminate the statute of limitations for crimes committed against children. Under current French law, survivors of rape have up to 30 years after turning 18 to pursue legal action — a window that advocates argue is insufficient given the time it often takes victims to come forward. The proposed legislation, which has drawn support from survivor advocacy groups including the Brave Movement, would remove that deadline entirely, potentially allowing victims to seek justice at any point in their lives.
