How did an officer making a quarter of a million dollars a year not get attention from the city? This wasn't overlooked, it was ignored.

Those cars have gps trackers. Dispatch and his supervisors absolutely knew about this and he probably wasn’t the only one.

How did a news channel uncover all this but his own Dept didn’t?!?!?!

This is theft. Anyone stealing 500$ would be charged with a Felony.

there is no way this happens without 2 or more people cooperating in this. dispatch knows he was not responding to calls during his shifts and the bookkeeper knew he was scheduled for those hours

He should be going to jail for fraud. Anyone else who did this would be.

He wasn’t the only one. There was definitely a reason they didn’t have a better system to track their hours implemented…

"Administrative leave" so guy gets to sit at home &get paid. Isn't that pretty much what he's accused of being guilty of?

How about immediately charged for theft..anyone else would be arrested

It would be really interesting to see if the hours submitted by his fellow officers suddenly drops as a result of this investigation. There HAVE to be more cops doing this, and anyone whose claimed hours suddenly dip (for fear of getting caught) should be investigated. Mens rea.

A state trooper accused of claiming overtime for hours he spent at home offered an impassioned defense Thursday of his career in law enforcement, calling his recent arrest "crazy" and accusing the Louisiana State Police of applying double standards in the discipline of troopers.
