Qin Yong looked at Lu Chuan standing in front of him, and the more he looked, the more he liked him.
Since joining the police force last June, Lu Chuan had continually surprised Qin Yong.
On his first day on the job, he captured a criminal who had been wanted for twenty-eight years.
In fact, legally speaking, most cases have a statute of limitations, usually twenty years.
For example, if a suspect attacked someone twenty years ago, causing injury, and then fled.
Twenty years later, the case might not be pursued anymore because it is too old, and even if the person is caught, it is beyond the statute of limitations and cannot be sentenced.
The reason for the existence of the statute of limitations mainly concerns the limited judicial resources.
Whether it is police resources or other judicial resources, they are limited.
And crimes don't stop occurring, so limited resources are focused on major, important, unsolved cases that are close to being solved.
