depends on the crime. some crimes have a statute of limitations meaning after a certain number of years you cannot be convicted of the crime. but crimes like murder do not have a statute of limitations.
What is the federal crime????

If the person committed a federal crime the person had a right to answer even if it is 20 years after or before

Are we talking about the US or elsewhere?
Depending on the crime, there are no statue of limitations and a person could be arrested 20 years after the fact and appear before a judge.

I think you're asking about the statute of limitations. It varies according to what the crime was. Things such as murder, have no statue of limitations, whereas other crimes may have a statute of 5 years.

depends on the crime. Some have a statute of limitations. Kidnapping and murder do not fall into this category

What are you asking?
Before you try this again you may want to look into taking a course in the English language.

it depends on if the crimes commited have a statute of limitations for them. some do and some don't . just depends on what occured and what state you are in.
