How long in Texas before statute of limitations runs out for charging me?
    #14190179 - 03/27/11 01:57 AM (12 years, 11 months ago)

Long story short, I fucked up big time and left behind some evidence that clearly linked me to a non-violent drug crime.  Soon after, police showed up around my place but never directly made contact with me.  This was last year.  I have not been contacted by police nor charged with any crime yet.  This is in Texas.  Anyone know how long the police have before they can no longer charge me for a crime?  I feel my days are numbered and they will break the door down any day now.  Last time it took them just at/under a year before they came to arrest me.  I can't seem to find info on how long they have to charge someone with a crime before no longer being able to do so.  It's probably too late for me anyway but I'd like to know.

If they haven't made a move yet but you can tell they're watching you it's because they don't have a solid case and are looking for more evidence, or watching to see if you'll commit more crime so they can stack em hi.

I was on the run for quite a while, and this deputy was trying to make a case against me & track me down (which he was unable to accomplish). The pig somehow got my roommates cell number (probably from some snitch bitch), I eventually got busted in another jurisdiction for another charge, but I was constantly breaking his balls over the phone, so it was really funny when I eventually met up with this gruff the crime dog motherfucker who had been "hot on my trail" lmao

Damn 3 years.  Yeah I am screwed.  Anon #3 a domestic US package was intercepted containing contraband and it was easily linked to me (I'll leave details out).

Yeah I saw that.  Not much I can do about that now but I appreciate the responses.  'Post anonymously' should be auto-checked if the OP was posted anon in my opinion.

Yep been quite a few months now and it's obvious I still have an open investigation going against me.  Was just followed the other day by a police cruiser all the way to my destination.  Mother fuckers need to go after violent criminals instead of people who have never harmed anyone in their life.  This is extremely frustrating because I know my door is going to be busted in any day now.  It might be tomorrow or it might be 6 more months from now, but it's going to happen at some point.

The police just do that sometimes--I've parked at friends houses and went around back to get them to stop following me before.

If you are in a major metropolitan area, I can't imagine they'd waste the resources on you unless someone really has it in for you OR you were moving weight in which case you'd have been charged already.

If you truly feel you'll be busted, then minimize damage. It's a good idea even if they just do a talk-and-knock because of your personal information which linked you.

Clean house, encrypt incriminating computer files, wipe free space, change passwords to high security versions, delete old SMS and old emails, etc.

Hope it blows over. Best of luck OP.

Thanks #5.  I've already encrypted my computer and cleaned the slack space on it so I'm good to go there, also nothing in my home is illegal except for a peyote plant or two out back mixed in with a huge cactus collection.  I don't live in a huge city so the police do unfortunately have the time to dedicate resources to tracking me like they have been.  If they'd just get it over with and arrest me I'd be alright..but it's the fear of the unknown and not knowing when they'll strike that bothers me and keeps me up some nights.

The strange thing is about a few years back my friend was being watched by an undercover.  I thought he was paranoid until I was in the car with him one time, and this cop in a funky looking easily identifiable car kept following us.  We saw this thing everywhere we went whenever I'd hang out over there with him (he's in prison now from that incident but leaving details out).  Well, that same type color and model vehicle is the one following me around so either it's the same undercover or more than likely they just have a very small pool of unmarked vehicles to use for their UC work.  I really want to walk up to it one day and ask what the fuck the guy's problem is but that will obviously just make things much worse for me.

I hate the feeling of helplessness here.  They could shoot me point blank in broad daylight in public and get away with it, yet if I were to do as described above, it wouldn't end very pretty for me.

The roles are reversed, I wasn't the one receiving I was the one sending.  That's why there is a problem.  The evidence I left behind on the pack and in the pack easily link it back to me.

These mother fuckers are good at watching by the way.  I was looking over my shoulder and everywhere I could to try and find someone following me on the way to the post office to pick up a payment.  Didn't see a soul in sight, then out of nowhere when I walk out of the PO there's a guy in a van with tinted windows watching me, and yes, he followed me all the way to near where my home was about 35 miles away.  I don't know how the hell they hide so well but I wish I knew their tactics so I could try and counter them.  There's only so many routes I can take to get to the post office so I guess that's a huge problem too.

Are you still committing the same crime? They're probably just waiting  to bust you doing something bigger, figure out who you're working with and take you all down, or dont have enough evidence to do shit. Pack your shit up and get  out of town. If they dont have enough evidence to bust you they'll forget about you and if they do at least your shit is all packed for while you're in prison.

They definitely have solid evidence against me, that is a 100% solid fact as much as I hate to even say that.  The package I sent contained enough evidence to personally identify me beyond any reasonable doubt so I know they have enough right now to arrest me if they wanted to.  It sucks because I lost my job a while back and haven't found another one so it's a tough situation to be in.  They're watching me so close they will also see me looking for jobs while I drive around town so they'll likely know I was doing this to make my money instead of working a real job.  All around it's a fucked up situation so I'm kind of cornered right now.  I'd rather run out of money and get booted from my apartment than continue selling and get hauled off to jail..but the thing is I'm probably already going to jail anyway since like I said they have plenty of strong solid evidence to work with right now.

Fuck drug prohibition.

I don't know what you had in the pack but it sounds like you're pretty concerned about it, if I were in your shoes I'd pack all my valuables and some clothes in a bag I could carry and slip out in the dark. You don't necessarily have to leave Texas (I would make my way to the bus station and get out), but you should head somewhere they can't link you to like a friends house or something until you can make a better plan or so you can sell some shit to make money before you go.

If they have enough evidence to charge you already then you are only making things worse. They are watching who you buy from and will bust them, they are watching who you sell to and will bust them too, they are watching you to get even more charges to bust you with. You are fucking you and everyone around you by continuing on this path. What happens when everyone figures out you're hot and everyone around you gets busted. You're fucking alot of people and you dont know which ones of them might just stab you for getting them busted. If you're really under surveillance then it is time to get the fuck out of town if you dont want to end up dead or in prison. This isnt like the movies, when cops start watching someone they are investing their time and someone is going to jail. The more time they invest the more charges they better produce.

Well it's worth mentioning all business has ceased to a halt here.  The payment I was picking up at the post office had nothing to do with my activities that landed me under surveillance to begin with.  Not that I would expect the cops to know the difference.  For now I'm just sitting here and waiting it out until they make a move.  That is the worst part about it though.  Not knowing when they're going to come through that door with a battering ram sucks.

I'm guessing there's no possible way for a good attorney to get me out of this one is there?  Considering the police never actually made a sale with me via an informant and they have no first-hand account of what took place, only evidence left behind after the fact.  It isn't much of a difference but is anyone familiar enough with the law to know either way?
