I reported a crime, and the person responsible wasn't ever charged. Why?

The decision to charge (or not charge) a person with a crime is not something the police department controls. We document the facts of a crime and make an identification of responsible individuals. The District Attorney decides whether or not to file a complaint. If your case was not filed, contact the District Attorney's Office at 530-842-8125.
