Terminology does differ between states. In my state, lawyers who represent the state in criminal court are all commonly called prosecutors (even if the proper title may be deputy prosecutor). In many contexts -- for example who gets to bring a gun into the courthouse -- we are considered to be law enforcement personnel, albeit obviously with different powers/responsibilities than a policeman or a sheriff's deputy. Some states call the equivalent officials "district attorney" or "commonwealth attorney" with their underlings being variously appended the term "assistant", "deputy" et cetera.
