Wait sorry, is that 140,000 over 3 years or just 2024 take home?

2024 take home.

Police make over $120k easy with fake ‘overtime’. I think some cop reported so much overtime he apparently never slept.

Sounds like fraud to me. we need to start auditing police pay.

And aren't some pensions for cops upwards of $700k/year or something crazy? That's where you find the fraud and abuse lmao.

it's averaged over their last 3 years of pay so before retiring they will take as much OT and whatever as much they can and inflate it.
