Fuero Federal = Federal Law, involves federal crimes.
FUero Común = State Law, involves common crimes.
In this case it involves the state prosecutor who handles common crimes.

Fuero Federal = Federal Law, involves federal crimes.
FUero Común = State Law, involves common crimes.
Se trata de la distinción que existe entre el fuero federal y el común. Por ejemplo, en México los delitos contra la salud (de drogas) son del fuero federal por definición, pero un asalto corresponde al fuero común. Un homicidio cometido por organizaciones delictivas es del fuero federal, pero un homicidio pasional o en un asalto corresponde al fuero común.

: THis may be correct, but I'm not convinced by your reference - just because one person translates it that way doesn't mean it's right.
