> [@mike125k](#): > > Just because you evaded getting caught for 5 years shouldn’t give you a free pass. That’s like saying you robbed a 7-11 but didnt get caught for 5 years. “Well since you managed to make it 5 years without us finding you touche, you’re free to go.” That’s complete BS. Actually, there is something called Statue of limitation in both civil and criminal cases. If a person is not accused within a certain time of an offence, he cannot be tried. Federal and nys limitation on robbery is actually 5 years, so if I rob a 7-11 and don’t get caught and charges aren’t filed within 5 years, I get away scott free. As far as immigrants, I am all for legal immigrants, but if you don’t have your papers, bye bye. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/illegal-immigrants/11178)._
