In 1993, a man sneaked into Donna and John Palomba’s house in Waterbury, Connecticut. John was away, and Donna and her kids were asleep. The masked man covered Donna’s head with a pillowcase, wrapped nylon stockings around her mouth and eyes, bound her hands, cut open her underpants and raped her. Once he was gone, Donna, who was 36, checked on her kids. She grabbed the phone to call the police, but it was dead. Panicked, she locked the front door and went looking for a phone. After calling 911, she ran back home and went to the hospital to have forensic evidence collected and receive treatment for her wounds. A few weeks later, the lieutenant in charge of the police department’s Sex Crimes Unit insinuated that Donna should be arrested for reporting a fake crime. It wasn’t until 2004 that a local man whose DNA matched the DNA the hospital had collected during Donna’s forensic exam was arrested. There was one very big problem: Connecticut’s statute of limitations prohibited them from charging him for Donna’s rape. Across the U.S., time-limiting laws prevent scores of sexual assault cases from being prosecuted, in spite of persuasive evidence or a confession. @elinorcarucci took this photo of Donna, right, with her daughter, Sarah.
