Re: childhood sexual abuse
Regarding pressing charges, you should speak to the police immediately, since the statute of limitations may block the charges if you wait.
Regarding suing DCF, again you should speak with an attorney quickly, as the statute of limitations may block your lawsuit. The statute of limitations for lawsuits against state agencies are usually shortened by six months. The state has other defenses to such lawsuits as well that aren't available to non-state entities. Seek out an injury or civil litigation attorney immediately.
