What I am requesting for prompt disclosure are records in your possession detailing your discussions about [1] the decision of the California government to recognize through Assembly Bill No. 2777 (a.k.a) the Sexual Abuse and Cover Up Accountability Act that (i) an American is sexually assaulted every 68 (sixty eight) seconds; (ii) one out of every six women has been the victim of an attempted or completed rape in their lifetime (iii) only about 300 (three hundred) out of every 1,000 (one thousand) sexual assaults are reported to police; (iv) thirty three percent (33%) of women who are raped contemplate suicide; (v) thirteen percent (13%) of women who are raped attempt suicide; (vi) a 2016 analysis of 28 studies of nearly 6,000 women and girls 14 years of age or older who had experienced sexual violence found that 60 percent of survivors did not label their experience as “rape;” (vii) women may not define a victimization as a rape or sexual assault for many reasons such as self-blame, embarrassment, not clearly understanding the legal definition of the terms, or not wanting to define someone they know who victimized them as a rapist or because other blame them for their sexual assault; (viii) when the perpetrator is someone a victim trusts, it can take years for the victim even to identify what happened to them as a sexual assault; (ix) it is self-evident that the unique nature of the emotional and psychological consequences of sexual assault, especially on women, can paradoxically permit wrongdoers to escape civil accountability unless statutes of limitations are crafted to prevent this injustice from occurring; (x) it is self-evident that statutes of limitations for sexual assault need to be crafted in a way that does not cause the covering up company to enjoy the fruits of their cover up solely because our statutes of limitations permit, and thus motivate, such behavior; [2] Michael A.
