That type of Bentley runs about 80K for a 2010, without armor. The article simply said bullet proof windows.

Hard to know how accurate it would be. But an armored Bentley could easily be 50K more.

I’m sure that the stress and danger for a cop in NYC is much more than in my quiet suburban town. But how do you figure out the extra compensation? I guess the old supply and demand would figure that out. Although I imagine that the police union won’t let that happen.

I used to have a neighbor who lived across the street from me who was a Fairfax county Police. He bragged that his annual pay was about $55K but with his overtime he always made at least $100K.

Years later he became a Sergeant and when he finally retired he said that with the inclusion of all his overtime he was going to make about $110K per year for the rest of his life.

As a side note he was one of the most nastiest, foul, and corrupt cops I have ever met.

I am a retired LEO after 30 years of service. I suspect if I listed my assets, the cop haters on FR would take little time to convict me for only God knows what. Some Cops do well, I did and unlike many on this forum, I wasn’t a crook.

BTW, I wrote a check for my beautiful 2017 Corvette Z06 about a year ago. It is not bullet proof, but it was about 35k more than most used 2010 Bentley’s listed on the net.

I am leaving soon for a 2 week camping vacation, so I’ll enjoy not seeing the written vomit from the FR cop haters.

At the end of this month I will qualify on the range and at that time I will have the “cop CCW” permit. I retired in 2002, but I have never bothered getting this permit because it just didn’t seem fair that I could get it and non-cops couldn’t. However, I have changed my mind. If that bothers anyone, they can bite me.

Oh, and a week ago I bought a new handgun, a Sig 320 9mm compact, came with red dot, great Sig light tall sights and I added a flashlight.....it is very sweet.

This is the second day in a row that the Cop haters have revealed themselves.

Good investments pay well.

Hillary and Behar will be praising the brave attacker.

Some police are frugal and do well. Others do not.

Police compensation ranges from only a little more than minimum wage in some small town rural departments to well over 100k in some big cities. Climbing the management ladder can get you to five times that.

Enjoy your retirement.

I am having a ball, myself. But, I retired out of the DOD, so I was a federal government employee...

#5 and a much better shot.
#7 drug money bought that rolex and car.

He was fooling around according to this:
https://nypost.com/2011/03/26/punched-kicked-in-head

Fowlkes’ lawyer, Stephen LaMagna, claimed Holmes was having an affair with NYPD Detective Robert Santos, and that she is now lying “to make herself look better.”

LaMagna said Holmes told her husband on Monday morning she was going to work, but instead went to Santos’ home.

“It doesn’t look good that one of [NYPD’s] inspectors is having an affair with one of their detectives,” he said.

Hard to know for sure in these cases.

People go crazy in affairs of the heart.

Maybe he became a Bentley salesman after he retired.

There are such things as paid details.

The car could have been bought at auction.

But looking at used car prices for a 2010 Bentley, they range from mid 40k to upper 80k or about the price of a new Tahoe or Suburban.
