deputy district attorney / deputy federal prosecutor
Explanation:
Es un error, falta la "a". Debería decir c. agente (ciudadano agente).
El término "agente" significa que es un subalterno o "deputy".
Por ejemplo, en el condado de Los Angeles hay un solo "District Attorney" (Fiscal del Condado) que es elejido por sufragio, y todos los subalternos son "deputy district attorney" (Subfiscal del Condado).
En el ámbito federal hay un solo Attorney General (Procurador General de Justicia) y sus subalternos son "Deputy Federal Prosecutor" (c. Agente del Ministerio Público)
La "c." de cuidadano es una formalidad que no se traduce.
