Every person who attempts to commit any crime, but fails, or is prevented or intercepted in its perpetration, shall be punished where no provision is made by law for the punishment of those attempts, as follows:

(a) If the crime attempted is punishable by imprisonment in the state prison, the person guilty of the attempt shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for one-half the term of imprisonment prescribed upon a conviction of the offense attempted. However, if the crime attempted is willful, deliberate, and premeditated murder, as defined in Section 189, the person guilty of that attempt shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for life with the possibility of parole. If the crime attempted is any other one in which the maximum sentence is life imprisonment or death, the person guilty of the attempt shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for five, seven, or nine years. The additional term provided in this section for attempted willful, deliberate, and premeditated murder shall not be imposed unless the fact that the attempted murder was willful, deliberate, and premeditated is charged in the accusatory pleading and admitted or found to be true by the trier of fact

What is the statute of limitations on attempted murder in ga?

There is no statute of limitations on filing a charge such as that. HOWEVER - the sooner, the better, time is of the essence! The next time, the attempt may not fail. ALSO - the longer you wait to report such a serious crime the more doubt law enforcement may have about the truthfulness of your story. Sorry... but THAT's a realistic fact!


What is the statute of limitations on attempted murder in South Carolina?

It depends on the details of the offence. Was the person raped during the course of the attempted murder? - if so, no limitation date applies. Also, when the person eventually dies, if the autopsy shows that the death was in anyway causally related to an old injury (caused by the attempted murder), which could be a simple infection, then the death will be found attributable to the attempted murder and changed to a murder charge and thus no limitation applies. Hope this helps.
