None
Explanation:
There is no statue of limitation for capital crimes or crimes considered heinous for society.
Statue of limitation is the time window where charges against the defendant can be filed. The general statue of limitation for felonies is five years.
The exceptions of this five year rule are: capital offences including homicide, terrorism and sexual offences against children.
The purpose of statue of limitation is to protect the defendant so that he does not have to justify his actions of many years ago.

Answer: None exist
Explanation: Statute of limitations is a law that is is used to set the maximum time or period for someone or a group of people involved have to initiate legal proceedings from the date the alleged offense was committed, either civil or criminal offenses. Unfortunately, cases like Homicide which involves the taking of someone life, have no status of limitation. This is because it is an offense punishable by death or life imprisonment.
