Here in California cops can easily make $150K...before overtime and extracurriculars.
I have wondered since Day 1 how a cop could afford 2 fairly new Mercedes.

Well, that’s a crime right there!

Here in my area of L.A. we have neighborhood meetings with our ‘senior lead officer’ for this area. More than once he has encouraged us all to call in, ask questions, report possible crimes, etc.
He said, “We are paid very well for our services and you deserve whatever time it takes us to handle your concerns.” He went on to explain that his wife is also an officer, and that he has a nice house and a boat, and anyone who thinks LAPD officers should be pitied is wrong.
And yes, add in overtime and the rich benefits they get, and they are not hurting financially.
This particular officer, I’m fairly sure, would not be stealing someone’s stuff, but you never know, do you?
Most of my dealings with officers have been fine but no one has had to come into my house to collect illegal drugs or anything, either.
