I understand but you know how her legal defense team will position it.
“The original crime cant be prosecuted because of the statue of limitations, therefor any subsequent offenses cant be prosecuted” ... or some such. And then use the appeals process to further run out the clock.
SOL is tolled by the filing of the indictment, so the appeal process is irrelevant.
Defense counsel routinely throws in SOL as a defense, no big deal. Lots of criminal activity happened after 2013, don’t fret.
And, do we know that no indictment has been filed? It can be filed but not yet served. I’d have to look at the federal rules to see whether there is a time limit in which the prosecutor *must* serve the defendant with an indictment once it’s filed.
