Police chiefs, by and large, are politicians. Politicians want more power. They get that power by convincing the public, and to a greater degree, Congress, that their services are more important and more needed than they really are. Thus, attracting more FUNDING!
It’s all about the money! As always.
I would love to see the results of a survey of street-rank police officers think about the same subject.
