By prosecute you mean sue right because only attorneys and judges can prosecute. Anyway, you file a suit for divorce and the reason would be for whatever you think the fraud is. This is best for a attorney to word so you dont miss anything. When the matter refers to a fraudlent marriage connected with Immigration issues the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement have jurisdiction. http://www.ice.gov
