I got to this late but I don't mind if you reply later.. Anyway I've thought about joining the hpd (houston) I know I'll have to be an officer for 3 years here before I can apply for a certain position. I'd like to be a detective because I'm a very detail oriented person who analyzes everything in a sense im also a bit skeptical. My question is are detectives eligible to get over time for gigs similar to officers or a detectives over time is different? Also is homicide very dangerous for people with families or in general? Which is a safer detective job but still more exciting (not sitting in an office all day)
