A friend has told me an interesting story: he was saying
when he just turned 18, he went into a home of someone he
barely knew and stole some checks. Then cashed them all
over town for cash. From what i could hear, the checks
were from a closed bank account. One of his friends called
the guy that the checks were stolen from and charges were
filed. The guy was saying he left the state and has never
been back, been using a different name ever since. This
was apparently 25 years ago! He then continued to say how
he got away with this and how the statute of limitatins
has ran out. He has not done anything wrong since, not
even a speeding ticket! He doesn't sound happy about what
he did, seems to just want to live a normal life. Have the
limitations run out? What could these charges be?
Burglary, theft, larceny? Would there be warrents still
out after 25 years? Should I call the county where this
happened and tell them I know where he is?
