The most wonderful of Statute of Limitations is fraud. Sell concert benefit tickets to help children with cancer, duck out for 4 years. That's tax-free income! Steal a car, wreck it, abandon it. You have to hope you don't get fingerprinted for 7 years.

There are some crimes that have a statute of limitations, often of seven years. But this depends on the crime and the state you live in, and it can change if they decide to change the law. Some crimes, like murder, have no statute of limitations.

It depends on the crime. For instance, murder doesn't have a statute of limitations.
