So, I was just reading an article (http://www.winknews.com/news/weird/15733557.html) whose topic was a priest or something who just admitted to a murder he committed in '94, and he's currently being held w/o bail.
How do statutes of limitations work? I guess, I dunno why, but I always had this 6 or 7 year thing in my head, like if you did something over a certain time period ago, you can no longer be prosecuted. I mean, if a 45 y/o man says he sold acid when he was 18, can he technically be prosecuted? How does this kind of thing work?
