The power to prosecute offenders typically lies with the government, specifically through prosecutors or district attorneys at the state level, and U.S. Attorneys at the federal level. These officials are responsible for bringing criminal charges against individuals accused of violating laws. Ultimately, it is the judiciary that has the authority to impose sentences, including imprisonment, following a trial or plea agreement.
