In 2015, Rochester Indymedia used the Freedom of Information Law on the city to obtain the base pay for the entire uniformed Rochester Police Department.

We were going to combine this information with the police demographics for 2015 (see the demographic information for 2015), but we didn't have enough variables to make a 1 to 1 comparison.

Some highlights from the November 2015 data regarding the base pay of Rochester police officers are:

  • The top five commanding officers of the Rochester Police Department (the Chief, two deputy chiefs, and two police captains), combined, made a total of $526,340.36
  • The top 16 cops made base salaries of over $100,000 each
  • Chief Michael Ciminelli came in at the top at $135,648.50
  • The lowest paid officer, Marc R. Sutton, made $51,797.98
  • These salaries do not include benefits, overtime, or other monetary incentives

When considering how much money the people of Rochester put toward police, who tend to be male (77% as of 2015), white (86% as of 2015), and where the majority live outside of the city of Rochester (93.3% as of 2015–we're still waiting for 2016 numbers), even as far as the seven contiguous counties of Monroe, one must wonder how vibrant the city and its residents could be if we instead kept the money in the city and funded Black futures?

Account Creation Policy Change

Rochester Indymedia is now requiring editor approval for account creation.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us.  As before, we will continue to be Rochester's grassroots news and education site.  Thank you for your continued support and remember, "Don't hate the media, be the media!"
