intentional homicide, first-degree reckless homicide, first degree sexual assault, or

first degree sexual assault of a child, and if a jury finds the defendant guilty of a lesser

included crime, the defendant may be convicted of the lesser included crime even if

the time to commence a prosecution for the lesser crime has expired.
