It's a highly paid job, police are often the highest paid employees on a government's payroll. The officer in question in the OP makes $154k/yr according to open records, which is only $1k over the median salary for the SPD, and cops in the same department make over $250k with overtime and overtime fraud[1]. They can also retire with a full pension and benefits after only 20 years of working. They have way more than their "bros". They also have multibillion dollar unions, governments and lobbyists on their side, as well.
