There's no statute of limitations on murder. In the US. I assume since much of our law descends from British law, it's much the same there.
He's safe from execution, at least; the UK abolished it.

Our "justice" system is too light on 19th-century serial killers.
There's statistics to back this up. Go ahead and look at the prison system. Not a single 19th century killer held in custody today.
Looking back at historical incarceration rates there is a clear trend of locking up fewer and fewer 19th century criminals, until the numbers drop off altogether. This suggests a highly orchestrated plan to gradually reduce the population so at to avoid notice, and it worked. Here we are today without a single 19th century criminal incarcerated today. The data doesn't lie. /s
We're getting soft. Back in the old days, why, we'd dig up the old bastard and rebury him in non-consecrated ground! That'd teach him.
There's no statute of limitations on any laws in the UK.
Get. Out. Really? So, if you shoplift a greeting card when you're in your teens, you have to keep looking over your shoulder and expect a knock on your door even when you're 80?
That's an oddly specific item to shoplift and I doubt anyone would bother pursuing you for it like 65 years later but technically yea if there was evidence of you committing a crime and you haven't already been tried for it you still can be.
