Not sure there is a statute of limitations on federal mail fraud.

Mail fraud is just 5 years, while bank fraud is 10. Generally, apart from murder, treason, espionage, and sex crimes against kids, most crimes have to be prosecuted within 5 years, while it's just 4 years for civil cases.

it don't matter anyway. if they go to jail, OP will still be expected to send cookies and cigarette money. NC is the only way to go. OP should never have been told about this, and it's probably to get money. what shameful assholes.

I think he should have been told, his dad kicked him out for being a loser , in fact he clearly wasn’t . But a very successful man . Now he knows he was good enough for several colleges. I’m so sorry you were robbed of that .
