    Considering that the many of the people here, that you want help from, are in law enforcement it probably would be smart to edit your idiotic post.

    I believe you are stating that you were caught selling LSD, or with possession of an amount from which the law infers intent to distribute, and the police offered you the opportunity to act as an informant in order to reduce the charge or perhaps even to avoid being charged. If that's the case, you can rest assured that if you refuse to act as an informant you will be charged or, if you have already been charged, that the prosecution will continue on the original charges.
    Quote Quoting Louisiana Code of Criminal Procedure § 572. Limitation of prosecution of noncapital offenses
    A. Except as provided in Articles 571 and 571.1, no person shall be prosecuted, tried, or punished for an offense not punishable by death or life imprisonment, unless the prosecution is instituted within the following periods of time after the offense has been committed:
    (1) Six years, for a felony necessarily punishable by imprisonment at hard labor.


    (2) Four years, for a felony not necessarily punishable by imprisonment at hard labor.


    (3) Two years, for a misdemeanor punishable by a fine, or imprisonment, or both.


    (4) Six months, for a misdemeanor punishable only by a fine or forfeiture.
    B.
    (1) Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 571.1 and Paragraph A of this Article, prosecutions for any sex offense may be commenced beyond the time limitations set forth in this Title if the identity of the offender is established after the expiration of such time limitation through the use of a DNA profile.


    (2) A prosecution under the exception provided by this Paragraph shall be commenced within three years from the date on which the identity of the suspect is established by DNA testing.


    (3) For purposes of this Article, "DNA" means deoxyribonucleic acid, which is located in cells and provides an individual's personal genetic blue print and which encodes genetic information that is the basis of human heredity and forensic identification.


    (4) This Paragraph shall have retroactive application to crimes committed prior to June 20, 2003.
    C. Upon expiration of the time period in which a prosecution may be instituted, any bail bond applicable to that prosecution which bond has not been forfeited shall also expire, and all obligations of that bail undertaking shall be extinguished as a matter of law.

    States no longer have those prisons where you spend every day breaking rocks, but that doesn't mean that they have taken "hard labor"-type language out of their statutes.

    Would making license plates be considered hard labor?
