these aren't street cops, they're senior detectives and admin. a sergeant makes about $125k with 20+ years of experience.

    "The officer and detective group includes some supervisors, since LAPD’s own rank descriptions classify Detective II and III as supervisory positions. What the payroll shows is that nearly half of the people over $300,000 held officer or detective titles rather than sergeant, lieutenant or command ones. The Detective III at the top of this story was an example and not the top of the list, since a Deputy Chief II was paid $476,701 and two Sergeant IIs were paid $456,662 and $452,971."

    It's a wounder what reading the article can do for you.
