Many law enforcement agencies, especially smaller ones, do not have personnel assigned solely to homicide investigation. Those agencies that do not have dedicated homicide investigators wil assign a regular officer to investigate, should a murder occur in their jurisdiction.

Added: In many large cities or large geographically spread-out jurisdictions with many sub-stations, will have their Homicide Investigation Unit centrallized in one particular facility - usually the headquarters building.
