The Department is currently about 50/50 Black vs. White personnel.

Most likely any Baltimore White officers very close to retirement either full or minimum time are now in serious thought on pulling the pin ASAP.

Amid a city budget crisis, Mayor Rawlings-Blake championed a 2010 pension reform law that changed the minimum number of years of service necessary for full retirement benefits from 20 to 25 years, including for any current employees with less than 15 years on the force; increased the amount that employees must contribute to the system; and changed the way the average final salary of police and firefighters would be calculated for pension purposes.
