Re: statue of limitations
warrants are forever. He either turns himself in, or he'll end up taken away in cuffs if ever stopped by police. He can't come back to the US without being arrested. His solution is to have an attorney appear in court and make 'turn in' arrangements for him. Have him contact me if interested in doing so.

Untill he is arrested or otherwise surrenders to take care of the underlying matter.

Warrants are forever. It will remain in effect until your friend is captured, surrenders or dies.
