More details to this question:
My friend and I were stopped at a store and ticketed for shoplifting. I was in the bathroom when she had put unpaid merchandise in the cart. At the arraignment, she talked to the DA first and they told her she was guilty by association. Her lawyer talked to the DA and then she got all charges dismissed except for court fees. She has a list of felonies. I have a clean record.

No, deciding to not proceed on Defendant A does not mean they can not proceed on Defendant B. If you do not already have counsel, hire counsel.
