A homicide detective investigates suspicious deaths. That would be a death that can't be ruled natural or accidental.

Is there an age limit to become a homicide detective?

The process to become a homicide investigator varies with every law enforcement agency. Politics have as much to do with one's success as does competence and experience. In a small agency, there may be only one or a few general-assignment detectives, or none at all (80% of the 18,000+ law enforcement agencies in the United States have fewer than 20 sworn officers), so anyone can be a "homicide detective," if a homicide takes place. In larger agencies, where there are career homicide detectives, there is seldom any requirement of service time to become a detective. However, homicide is usually regarded as the most prestigious investigative assignment, and the investigators in that assignment will generally be fairly senior, with ten years or more of service as police officers.
