Seriously, it's interesting how he can still be arrested 14 years later. I'm sure many more serious crimes would belong to the statue of limitations after this amount of time.

My best part is Tim Green's apparently disbelief that someone would actually rent Freddy Got Fingered. Although maybe it is not so surprising that someone would completely forget about it the instant they stopped watching it.

The man has a right to face his accuser in a court of law, and it sounds like that entity does not exist any more.
