In most jurisdictions, crimes are set out through the government (society as a whole) in statutes. Crimes, alleged or otherwise are not just committed against the victims but also against society as a whole (generally represented by the government). Therefore, the prosecution of crime should be done by the government. This ensures uniformity of prosecutorial policy and public scrutiny.
