I have been in PRE LAW STUDIES AT THE UNIVERSITY OF TENNESSEE. You are WRONG. If a shop owner chooses not file charges against a shoplifter, then the DA has no case. If I beat up my neighbor and he does not file charges then guess what....NOTHING HAPPENS! The DA can investigate the crime, but if no one files a complaint then that is the end of it. The only exception is in the case of a battered spouse or child/elder abuse...also if the victim is in a condition where they can not file charges ie. a coma or dead..then the DA has full reign. I give you credit for some of your post, but on this one YOU ARE WRONG.The DA can file charges regardless of the alledged victim(s).
Where have you been?
