Question

If I initially called the police but now do not want to pursue charges what can I do?

Answer

Once a person contacts a police agency regarding the commission of the crime, and causes another person to be arrested and charged, the decision to pursue the case is decided by the Morgan County Prosecutor’s Office. Our office policy is that once a person is charged, they are prosecuted, regardless of whether the victim has changed his/her mind.
