I've heard the same thing about a CJ degree from LEO's all over the country.
My Trooper buddy called me tonight and I asked him about how hard it was to get on. He said they told him LSP had about 1000 apps to choose from and they had about 85 started and about 70 finished his class
and became LSP Troopers.
I have a cousin that's LSP. I know the details that he pulls make some serious money.
Details are completely different than that. That is just the basic salary. I know my Parish SO's details pay $30 an hour with a minimum of 4hrs. They actually have a team that is dedicated to just sending out the details available to the deputies. A good friend of mine that works as road dog said he made an additional 40k one year on details alone, over doubled his salary. He busted his ass, but paid off his boat!!!
That is a great document if you are becoming an LSP Trooper, but if the OP was just now applying it would be 6-7yrs of steady cadet classes before he was even selected. As Charlie12 stated, they have over 1,000 applicants waiting for an academy.
From what you and others in this thread are saying, if money is the only thing on your brain, this is probably not the job for you. That's a lot of invested work/time to make $80K a year.
Sounds like a rich young man to me! Keep going and you'll get there. Getting off your butt and being proactive puts you past the first 500 in that 1000 man listya , I didn't join the army NG for the money, And becoming a LEO isn't about the money for me either. Both are things I've wanted to for as long as I can remember, and now that I've accomplished one goal I want to get started on the other.
LSP....... good luck!!! They have not had an academy for almost 2 years, I think.
