Legal Question in Criminal Law in Arizona

Re: When does it become to late or useless

It depends upon whether or not there is still the required evidence to convict. Why not contact the District Attorney's office where the crimes were committed and see what they say?

Re: When does it become to late or useless

You should contact your local law enforcement agency and file a report. The law enforcement agency will generally initially investigate, then decide whether there is sufficient information/evidence to submit the matter to the appropriate charging/prosecuting agency for prosecution. The charging/prosecuting agency will then review the law enforcement report and can either initiate prosecution, decline prosecution, or advise the law enforcement of additional information needed to proceed with the case.

Be aware of "statute of limitations" requirements which basically put a deadline on the time within which the offense/crime can be prosecuted.
