Besides the judge himself, you will have to write a letter to the State's Attorney's Office. I should point out, that if you truly cannot trust your appointed counsel, you would do well to refuse him and have your refusal - and reasons - placed in the record.

Can an attorney defending you in a criminal case represent you in a 'malicious prosecution' case?

No, it would be a conflict of interest.

Who is responsible to try a defendant?

The appropriate prosecuting authority is responsible. In state cases, it would generally be the attorney for the county in which the crime took place. These offices have different names depending upon the state: state's attorney, county attorney, state attorney, district attorney. Regardless of the name, the office is the principal prosecutor for crimes committed in that county. In some instances, though usually rare, the State Attorney General has the authority. If the crime is federal, then the US attorney for the district in which the crime took place would be responsible for the prosecution.
