Questions About Prosecuting For Childhood Sexual Abuse

Location: San Diego CA- El Paso TX-&Las Cruces NM

Hello, I’ve never posted here but I’m hoping to find others inputs and I’ll just cut to the chase I guess.
I don’t want any financial payout or anything like that. I’m kind of just wondering if at the minimum anyone thinks I’d be able to get my parents registered as sexual offenders for the safety of others.
So pardon the vulgarity and inappropriate subject matter.

Umm, so I was born in 03 and since birth my parents were extremely sexually interactive with me as a child. We lived in SD CA at the time. By the time I was 6 or 7 my parents would also let their friends have intercourse with me- around this time I got taken out of school because my school started question my behavior and assume something was wrong at home. This would culminate when I was 9 when my parents friend would give me HPV which eventually caused me to have to go the hospital for treatment. This would cause CPS to start investing my family. Once my parents found out, they momentarily had a dispute and split up temporarily they permanently kept me out of school and me and my mom moved to El Paso TX where the abuse took a short break. Eventually when they reconciled me and my mom would move back with my dad now in Las Cruces NM when I was 10 and a half. I attempted to run away from home when I was 17 I spent the majority of my past years in recovery in various psychiatrist hospitals. I’m relatively stable at this point and have made a lot of progress in recovery.

Here is my main issue: I’m 23 now, so I don’t know if it’s been to long. I have no evidence of anuthing happening because my parents bounced me around so much. I have none of my medical records, and I don’t know how to find them. My parents friend who gave me HPV has gone to prison for murder in like 2011 , so I don’t care what happens to him. But I have reason to believe my parents are still in close proximity to children. Not to mention over the past few years my dad has stalked me and found various addresses I have association with and shown up to them to try to take me back.

Is there any grounds for prosecution if it happened so long ago? If I think theres no evidence? I desperately feel responsible for attempting to pursue some sort of action especially since I know theyre still around children.
