Different story but it's an old topic.

“Even the California Highway Patrol - at the highest levels - is not spared from fraud allegations. ABC News reported "possible abuse ... specifically among its highest ranking officers. Most startling of all, 80 percent of assistant chiefs retired on disability - almost as many deputy chiefs ... 68 percent of assistant CHP commissioners were disabled when they retired. Investigators found that the CHP had the highest rate of disability retirements in state government."
