Private people never have the opportunity to prosecute anyone for anything. That right is left to the prosecuting attorneys office. Since tampering with the mail is a federal offense, it would be up to the Attorney General to determine whether to prosecute.

If you think someone has been tampering with another person's mail, you should contact the USPS to determine how to make a complaint with the authorities.
