You or your daughter do not file CSC charges. The prosecuting attorney does, but only after the facts are investigated by an independent agency, like a police department. So, report this to a police agency that has jurisdiction in the place where the alleged crime happened -- a city/township police department, the county sheriff, or even the state police.
