READING, Pa. (AP) — A Pennsylvania law ending time limits for authorities to file charges in future child sexual abuse cases is now in effect. The legislation signed Tuesday by Gov. Tom Wolf also gives future victims more time to sue. A landmark grand jury report last year found that 300 priests sexually abused Pennsylvania children over seven decades. Lawmakers have also begun the long process of trying to amend the state constitution to give now-adult victims of prior abuse a two-year window to file lawsuits.
