They received the 20% raises AFTER they knew about the massive budget shortfall. My guess is that they don't care. Louisiana is a police state. They protect the top dogs and the top dogs protect them.

Law enforcement has become a huge industry and the source of a lot of political power at local levels.

LSP, if anything, went out of their way to work with the state. They didn't have any raises or new hires since 2008 which cut their numbers significantly and the state still had budget issues.

The problems with the budget lies elsewhere.
