As a Homicide Detective no greater honor will be bestowed on an officer or a more profound Duty imposed on him than when he is entrusted with the investigation of the death of a human being. While working in the Homicide Squad, Detective Tim Slevin was tasked with investigating the brutal murders of young victims by MS-13 gang members in Nassau County. Tim’s investigations led to dozens of arrests and Tim was named Detective of the year by the Nassau County Detectives Association.

During Tim’s illustrious career and while in Homicide, he took their “Creed” very seriously. He made it his duty to find the facts regardless of the color or creed without prejudice and let no power on earth deter him from presenting these facts to the court without regard to personality. Tim always cared about doing the right thing and keeping the public safe.

Tim will be retiring shortly, but his morality and work ethic will be carried on by his son Timothy (TJ) Slevin, who will soon be graduating from the Nassau County Police Department.
