My question is: can I prosecut this alone, i.e. WITHOUT an attorney? (I know you have the right to DEFEND yourself as an attorney pro se, but am wondering if this extends to PROSECUTING someone). The governing association which would normally do this seems uninterested in pursuing it...

Thanks

You cannot prosecute anything. Only the Dept of Justice and the Attorney General can prosecute criminal activity. You can sue in civil court. If you think a crime has been committed your first call should be to the agency that would bring a case to the Attorney General's Office- such as the Securities and Exchange Commission or the FBI or the DEA or ATF.
