t but they can issue an arrest warrant.....but the said something on TV yesterday that if they arrested him on the murder charge something about the clock starts ticking on his right to a speedy trial
Regardless of any clock that may or may not exist I don’t see how charging him or putting a warrant out on him for murder would help find him in any way. And finding him is the biggest thing now
Charging him with murder would only make him and whoever may be helping him more desperate not to be found. It might even push him over the edge and he might kill himself if he hasn’t already
It’s a small thing but why make things any harder to find him?

I think he already has. However, IF he was where his parents say he was or is, I would think they would have found some remains by now unless a gator pulled the body off into the swamp.
His parents have probably been advised to keep quiet, but if my child was missing under any circumstances, I would be frantic.

What's the statute of limitations on this
For murder? There is no SOL for murder. For felonies it’s years depending on the class of the charge. For some felonies it can be 15-20 years. The SOL for a misdemeanor is a year.

not sure about Wyoming. Where I practice (TN), it's 4 years for manslaughter as manslaughter is a Class C felony. 1st and 2nd degree murder have no SOL.

He had enough time to buy a few of those readywise prepper containers and find a hideout. He just needs to weather this initial storm. In 6 months, he will be able to move around when this is off everyone's mind.

Wyoming is special because it doesn’t have a criminal statute of limitations. This means that there are no time limits for criminal prosecutions. Any crime can be prosecuted in the state at any time, indefinitely.

Murder vs. Manslaughter in Wyoming
While the death of one person at the hands of another is a serious offense regardless of the circumstances, Wyoming recognizes that not all homicides should be penalized equally. An intentional homicide should be penalized more severely than an accidental one. Therefore, state law prescribes different definitions and penalties for murder and manslaughter offenses.
Murder is the most severely punished form of homicide in Wyoming with penalties ranging from 20 years to lifetime imprisonment or capital punishment. Felons who committed murder were found to have intentionally killed their victims.
Manslaughter, on the other hand, is considered an accidental homicide. The felon was found to have killed their victim as the result of extreme emotional distress (also called a “heat of passion” homicide), criminal negligence or recklessness—including vehicular recklessness or impaired driving. Manslaughter is penalized with up to 20 years of imprisonment. (See § 6-2-105.)

Let head hair grow
Don’t think he can
I pointed out early on that in the police video he said something that stood out to me. When he gave them his ID he said, you probably don’t recognize me because I had hair then. Anybody know when he shaved his head? Social media may show it.

Even if it had a statute of limitations it wouldn’t apply here because they’d stop the clock since he’s on the run. The crime has been discovered. This isn’t like discovering a crime 10 years after it happens.

Does that count if you’re on the run for a completely different and lesser charge?

Oh is that really how it works? In that case the prosecutor could just wait and bring a charge against somebody 50 years later?

Or some signs that he was actually there. An old campsite, tracks…something.

To be fair, this is a 23 year old man who is a hobo. We aren't talking about a 12 year old missing.

I just read up on it. Statute runs only while the person is in the state and not hiding, usually. But it’s not simply based on when the crime was discovered.

I doubt that. He knows he’s going down for murder wether that’s the official charge right now or not. If anything, desperation could cause him to make a mistake and get caught.
