Not a lawyer, but I do know that it does vary. It varies by state as well.

Rape is usually 5 years, and murder I believe is indefinite in all 50 states.

Makes you feel bad for those women (and even men) who were raped but because DNA wasn't used all the time until recently, their five years came and went. Some crimes I just don't feel there should be a statute of limitations, but that is a whole nother thread. LOL
