Question about military and law?
WickedGoogly asked:
I am taking a few classes on law and we have to write a scenario for a legal situation and the other classmates have to figure the answer so I need to know say the scenario is this..
A civilian works at a commissary or PX on base,the said person steals 3 grand from the cash register but they are unable to prove it,question the said person then give that person their final paycheck,tell the person to stick around town and not to leave.The said person stays in town for two months and no one contacts them.Ten years have passed since the said crime and that said person has moved on,living a clean life,working full time and never commits another crime .Does the Navy/Army have a statute of limitations on finding this person and prosecuting them for said crime??
