Private individuals can NOT "press charges" against anyone. Only the prosecutor's office can bring charges. The most the victim can do is REPORT the alleged offense to law enforcement who will then take the necessary action. After having made a report which results in an arrest and prosecution, as the victim (i.e.; complaining witness) you will be required to testify as to the offense committed against you.
