Are there countries with time prescription for murder?

Brazil has.

Such theme is a bit complex, but under Penal Code of 1940 (still effective), the prescription lapse can reach up 20 years. Actually, most of homicides falls under that rule.

Considering the minimum penalty for a voluntary murder, the prescription lapse may reaches a low of twelve years.

Nonetheless, that time lapse can be restarted or suspended under certain circunstances.
