REPORTING GUIDE FOR VICTIMS, SURVIVORS, AND WHISTLEBLOWERS: In North Carolina, the criminal statutes of limitation are 2 years on most misdemeanors and no statutes of limitation on malicious misdemeanors and felonies. For civil suits in North Carolina, the statute of limitations is 3 years depending on cause of action. In Utah, the criminal statutes of limitation are 2 years on misdemeanors, 8 years on many felonies, and no statute of limitations on child sex trafficking or murder. For civil suits in Utah, the statute of limitations is 4 years. Here are your options: Options for you to take action and/or seek redress/justice today are listed below: 1. Report crimes such as assault, fraud, battery, labor trafficking, and child abuse to law enforcement in North Carolina and Utah. You can call the respective law enforcement departments below associated with the location where any crime occurred to inquire about filing an official complaint which may provide the probable cause needed to get a warrant for investigation and/or prosecution. If abused in Utah,
2. File a consumer complaint with your home state's attorney general against Solstice RTC, Solstice East, and/or Equinox and include your request for compensation for any harm done to you. If you live in North Carolina and/or would like to file consumer complaint as a non-resident with the Attorney General of North Carolina, visit https://ncdoj.gov/file-a-complaint/ . If your home state is Utah or you'd like to file with the Utah State Attorney General as a non-resident, here is that link: https://attorneygeneral.utah.gov/contact/complaint-form/ 3. If you do not wish to file a consumer complaint, you can contact a private personal injury attorney and look into suing in tort/civil court. However, if you can't afford the retainer, you should expect to settle out of court with a non-disclosure agreement which may bar you from speaking publicly about the incident because you've agreed (even if with a grumbling assent) to the terms of the settlement. 4. You may send a new e-mail to rev@cope.church with subject "Post My Feedback" and we will post your feedback (e-mail printed to .pdf disclosing your name and e-mail address and any information in your e-mail with that subject) to https://www.cope.church/feedback.htm and add a direct link to those .pdf files to this page . 5. You may also wish to provide a guest sermon. Guest sermons are posted at https://www.cope.church/sermons.htm , under Progress Reports/Guest Sermons at https://www.cope.church/conversion.htm where appropriate, and on program info pages when applicable. So, one provided by you on your program would also be placed on this page . Guest sermons should be written into the body of an e-mail and sent to rev@cope.church . Your first and last name will be disclosed (contact info will not be unless you expressly request disclosure). For sermons available on our site see https://www.cope.church/sermons.htm (and sermon archives linked on that page). If you have questions about this option, please contact rev@cope.church.
