Kamisha’s Law

This bill would remove the federal time limit for bringing charges for certain homicide crimes that are not punishable by death. Under the bill, federal prosecutors could bring charges at any time for second-degree murder, voluntary manslaughter, and attempted manslaughter under several sections of federal criminal law. These include offenses involving federal officers and employees, foreign officials, U.S. nationals abroad, and federal prisoners. The bill adds a new section to the chapter of federal law that sets time limits for prosecutions.
