You can try and get an appointment to speak with someone from the prosecutors office and try to convince them that you have enough evidence for them to proceed with charges - however - if you have been unable to convince the police that an offense took place I wouldn't hold out much hope. You may want to speak to a private attrorney and attempt to bring a civil case for some kind of 'damages' against the perpetrator.
Most states have a Statute Of Limitations during which charges can be filed against someone for certain types of crimes. Example, in Maryland you have a year and a day to bring or file charges against someone.
Sometimes charges can be dropped against someone even after an affidavit has been signed. It will really depend on the charges and city and state.
I believe the Statute is "suspended" indefinitely if there is an actual arrest warrant for an individual who is now viewed as a fugitive. The theory is that a person should not benefit from failing to answer a charge against him/her. The statute of limitations usually applies to the time allowed to bring charges against someone.
The statute of limitations is a part of defense for the accused and is used to question the time of the crime if it is still in force for arraignment of the accused. Additionally statue of limitations is a procedural defense that require the government to act properly when bringing charges against a person accused of committing a crime.
YOU cannot have the charges dropped by yourself. Such an assault is a crime against the state and only the prosecutor can 'drop' the charges. If you are a reluctant 'complaining witness' speak to the prosecutor about your hesitation to go forward.
The police can file charges against you for anything, at any time, for any action: unlike the movies and TV shows (and in violation of constitutional standards), you then must prove you didn't do whatever they are accusing you of.

The statute of limitations for auto property damage in North Carolina is 3 years. Auto property damage falls under North Carolina's civil statute of limitations.
The time limit to press charges for the illegal access to a deceased person's safe deposit box varies by jurisdiction. It is best to consult with a lawyer or legal authority in the specific area where the crime occurred to understand the statute of limitations for such offenses.
i have the same problem...
It depends on the statue of limitations for the individual state.
If they violated the law, absolutely!
