> With that said, what we did was very illegal, and other administrations may have pressed charges. We are grateful that the D214 administration was so understanding.
Note well that the victim of a crime does not get any say in whether or not a prosecutor prosecutes a crime. "Pressing charges" is a myth.
The prosecutor decides. Period.
The probability of a prosecutor filing charges decreases significantly if the victim does not want a case to go forward, and even more if they actively do not want to cooperate with the court case.
