Who brings criminal charges against a suspect?
Usually the way criminal charges work is that the arresting or investigating agency will turn in all relevant documents to the District Attorney and then the DA will decide if there is enough evidence to support a trial or if the case should be dismissed. From there the DA will present the case in front of the Grand Jury (in some states), this is not a trial and the defendant usually is not present. In this process there is no 'one person' responsible for charging an alleged criminal.
