is the Jan 6th case subject to statues of limitations? [View all]

[Takket]

google tells me this:

"Under federal law, the statute of limitations for obstruction of an official proceeding is generally five years as per 18 U.S.C. § 3282, which applies to most non-capital offenses; meaning a prosecution for obstruction must be initiated within five years of the offense occurring."

But does "prosecution for obstruction must be initiated within five years" mean the trial? the grand jury indictment? the arraignment?

trump has been indicted and the case dismissed "without prejudice". Is there a statute of limitations clocking on this? Because if there is, that clock expires on 2026, right? (5 years after the crime)

and yes i realize how naive it is to think this prosecution will just be "picked up" again in 2029 with a Dem AG. I'm just grasping out a sliver of hope.
