One day after federal charges of child pornography was announced against 52-year-old Daniel Heinreich of Annandale more questions were asked about the statute of limitations for prior crimes after he was a “person of interest” in the Jacob Wetterling case in 1989. Heinrich was not charged with any crimes related to that case nor a case 1989 of sexual abuse against a young boy in Stearns County. The U.S. Attorney’s office said the statute of limitations had passed in those cases, however it was reported that in 2000 legislation was passed to have no limitations on murder or kidnapping. The U.S. Attorney’s Office only elaborated that no charges have been filed against Heinreich in either of the 1989 cases. Heinrich waived his right to a detention hearing and his preliminary hearing is set for Wednesday in federal court in St. Paul.
