â¢ In US, a sheriff is a police officer but not all police officers are sheriffs. â¢ A sheriff is the highest law enforcing officer in a county and is an elected official. â¢ The officers performing law enforcement duty from the office of a sheriff are called deputy sheriffs.
A law enforcement officer (LEO) is any individual who is sworn in as a police officer, sheriff deputy, state trooper, or a federal agent to enforce the laws of the jurisdiction he or she serves.
