    They kinda do. There are five possible causes of death: homicide, suicide, accidental, natural causes, and unknown. All deaths not determined to be accidental or natural require a police investigation.

      That still isn’t a determination of lawfulness. Homicide just means a person killed a person.

      The DA or jury determines lawfulness.
