I'm to sick to go anywhere even if I wanted to....which I don't.

Hmm, Spence will be turning 87 in January. Hopes he's up to it. Gerry Spence is a man of many contradictions, all of which he's had the grace and good luck to overcome. There are many volumnes of tales by former neighbors and associates, that speak to Gerry's appetite for liquor and wild times. Stories that come out of the Wind River reservation, where he had a big ol' house, tell of days and days of crazy parties, a big hot tub, and numerous women. But he was loved and protected by them that knew him personally, and those he professionally represented as a lawyer. He must have been a good friend, and he was known as a good friend by many here in Wyoming. His nonprofit Trial Lawyers College is just outside Dubois, WY. He donated ENORMOUS tracts of land on the East Fork as a trust for public hunting and fishing. Mr. Spence has alot of associates who work for his firm, and I'm sure they will do right by this family.

Agreed.

That's why he's still going strong at 87.

Cops around here make damn good money, have excellent benefits so it's not pay. At least not around here, except for WSP which is spending hundreds of thousands on a study they already know the results of.
What they need is better vetting system, one that weeds out the type of person they currently look for.
They also need to encourage the good cops to speak up. The union protection needs to go and random urinalysis should be routine. Around here the cops are so righteous and beyond reproach that they aren't subject to random UAs. Unbelievable! Who is "they"...... What type, exactly, are "they" looking for? I ask because, I guess, I'm "they" and would imagine I seek a different "type" than WSP or many of your metro areas. I know exactly what "type" I want to hire and that has served my community well, historically speaking. I'm in the midst of a background for a candidate. I know the guy.....he's also well known/respected by a lot of folks I listen to (he's not currently an LEO). None of that changes the fact that I'm going to invest a significant portion of this week and next digging. Contrary to some "experts" there is no national hiring standard or"type". If an AO has a problem with schit cops than that AO has to clean it's process......

"They" is the department currently, someday maybe the community would have a voice in who the community chooses to pay to protect them. Not unlike citizen review boards or a fire commission.
I understand there may not be a "national hiring standard"....the change must happen post hiring. Probably isn't complete until after the probation period.
WSP has good troopers and a good reputation their problem is they don't pay as well as municipal cops.

Also as far as WSP goes they don't need to keep current levels they serve two functions 1)write tickets and 2)investigate MVAs (which they do well)
We pay too many people to write us tickets.
