Best Answer

Generally speaking, in the US, the local or state prosecutor decides if an alleged attacker will be charged with a crime. If there is enough evidence, in the mind of a prosecutor, then legal proceedings will begin. In some cases, however, the prosecutor will have a Grand Jury decide to either follow the prosecutor's recommendation, or not to.
