[/qb][/QUOTE]Just was stating the budget report of per officer pay and benefits. 188k per is pretty damn expensive. From the OPD website " Starting salaries are among the highest in the state - over $70k + rich benefits package" http://www.opdjobs.com/ [/qb][/QUOTE]Yeah and you gotta patrol Oakland LOL only person I feel worse for is an LAPD colleague. [/qb][/QUOTE]I actually think there is a huge policy issue going on in the Oakland police department. Here is what I believe will help the city of Oakland and the police department. In the past 15 years the number of police officers has increased by 3 times the amount. The amount of crime has slowly increase. My theory is police need to walk the beat and get to know the community. POlice are not trusted in the community and only appears after a crime is commited. If police officers familiarize themselves with the people in the community and are more visualible it will reduce crime. It will also gain the trust of the people in the community and will increase the co-operations with the people. Currently when you call the police 3-5 police cars show up 3-5 hours after you call the police. Oakland police tend to always have back-up regardsless of the severity of the call [/QB][/QUOTE]
