Is there a reason you have not called the police? I would think that would be you first option.
as Mr. Kane said, the only thing you could do is report it, if you want her prosecuted. For something done 2 years ago, that may be difficult at this point. From there (after receiving the report, if one is taken), the DA would decide to file any charges they deem appropriate, and for which the statute of limitations has not expired. Or, if you can prove any of it, you may be able to sue the person civilly, in small claims. Same issue there with time delay/ laches. Good luck!
