The statute of limitations varies depending on what crime is charged and whether the crime is charged as a misdemeanor or a felony.

I agree with Mr. Shapiro. Some crimes have a statute of limitations that begins to run when the crime is committed, and others based on other events, such as discovery. Other crimes do not have a statute of limitations at all. It depends on what is being charged and the underlying facts.
