If anyone needs any hard proof that the department is short staffed and the Chief is full of s--t about that, look at all the overtime for this year. There are hundreds of people at LMPD earning 50% to 200% of their salary from O.T. Paying out O.T. in these amounts instead of hiring additional officers, while telling the Metro Council you don't need additional officers, is technically called "lying your @ss off" With all the people wanting to cash out at 20 years, you will of course hear no complaints
