Dallas, TX asked in Criminal Law for California

Q: What if a man put his crime on a video site when he did it, but the statute of limitation has run out

I know who they are, The video site is active and the person's video is still up on the site for everyone there to see it, how does the law deal with this, it's not an illegal website, if someone's found video evidence of the crime,after the statute of limitation has reached it's limit, could the person who committed the crime still be charged and convicted for the crime.
