Hi, i am wondering what the highest paying law enforcement agency in the US is.
That includes police, federal ETC No intelligence agency's though EG: CIA NSA CSS ETC.
Thanks only serious answers please.
 
Your highest paid agency is not going to be a Federal one. You can check out this link for the salary table of federal police officers (not top supervisors):

Top ranking supervisors of various federal LE agencies will be Grade 11 thru 14.

A good many big city departments pay much higher wages than this.

In 2007 a police officer in Westchester County, NY, made $250.000 that year (with overtime) making him the highest paid police officer in the USA.
 
The Bureau of Labor Statistics compiles that data, you can search by geographical area.

Probably the FBI on average. A lot of it would depend on your rank within an organization. For example, entry level work will likely earn roughly the same wage at FBI, DEA,CIA, NSA, etc...
