The police do not prosecute crimes they only investigate them and enforce laws. If the crime is a state offense, the State Attorney's office prosecutes crimes - if it is a federal offense then the US Attorney's Office prosecutes them.

In either case, as long as the Statute of Limitations is not exceeded, there is no other particular time limit.
