I don’t know what happened to all of the money. I am sure a lot was wasted. I have not heard of my brother getting any payment. He retired from the police department after 20+ and now drives a school bus. He does get a good pension but I know for a fact he is not rich.

My father also retired from the Detroit police mounted division and when into self employment...he installed storm doors and windows for several different company's...Too young to just do nothing...his generation were not the sit down and watch TV guys....there was no TV. You don't get rich on pensions, but when the time comes to also collect social secu. its fine....

Dad didn't pay SS taxes as a cop. He paid them as a self employed guy. But did that for over 10 years and then retired...He paid enough into SS to collect, but not at the top rate. He passed in 1985 and I miss him still...
