Meth is a dangerous drug, it ruins lives and kills souls. thank you for spreading the misery.

I doubt the statute of limitations is going to get you out of it unless you are talking like 20 years ago. I don't think there was too much meth then.

Class Y felony's in Arkansas look like the highest felony letter, carrying mandatory ten to life sentences. Sharing the offenses with rape, and gang activity murder and arson.

I suggest anyone facing it not consult the internet, but an actual, expensive and well known lawyer that practices in your area.

took all of three seconds on google. to find all of that


Please note the use of the word initiated. as in, if they start before six years, but it keeps going on, they can still prosecute when they can. (they have been trying to...)
