"Pressing charges" basically just means that a victim has asked the police to look into the incident and file a report. The DA can decide to actually charge the perpetrator with or without victim cooperation. (It's super common in domestic violence cases for the victim to refuse to cooperate, but if the crime happened, the perpetrator can still be convicted.)
