I think I follow you... but, could you elaborate? Are you saying that if Durham has produced sealed indictments that those have no statute of limitations? Or are you saying any sealed indictment that could tie into Durham 's stuff would keep him active?
Example: Crime is committed Jul. 4, 2016. 5 year Statute of Limitations would mean you have until Jul. 3, 2021 to file charges or it's too bad, so sad.
Federal grand jury is empaneled on Jun. 14, 2018 for the above crime. And same day, files indictment which is sealed.
SoL clock STOPS.
Indictment can be unsealed after original SoL expiration date and prosecuted as if no time had passed since it was sealed.
Also: Durham waiting until last minute to drop this rather small charge in the grand scheme of things is an absolute confirmation that Sussmann has been cooperating and they wanted to keep it under wraps.
Sussmann was effectively charged with jaywalking. Now let's see what those lesser charges has earned him in the form of singing like a canary.

Got it. Thanks. So we just have to pray that Durham has a whole bunch of sealed indictments related to all of this.
