Although I think that&#x27;s an excellent example of a reason for the state to press charges, I think it&#x27;s rather obvious that&#x27;s a different matter. I would imagine one could argue that the victim in the case is potentially the state itself.<p>I&#x27;m thinking more along the lines that there is a clear cut victim of the alleged crime that refuses to file charges and the state does it in their stead. It would seem that the lack of charges from the alleged victim is the first defense of the accused, even the victim disagrees with the state.
