On August 30, 1994, Arnold Trevor Sharp was indicted on seven counts of sexual abuse in the first degree and one count of rape in the first degree.   The acts underlying counts one, four, five, six, seven and eight were alleged to have occurred between August 30, 1988, and April 1989.   The acts underlying counts two and three were alleged to have occurred between January 1 and July 16, 1990.   Arnold objected to the charges on counts one to three and five to eight, claiming that those counts were time barred. The trial court overruled Arnold’s objection and, after a jury trial, Arnold was convicted on all counts. During the appeal, Arnold argued that the sexual acts occurred far enough in the past so that the statute of limitations applied. There was no argument that Arnold did not commit the crimes.
