The Rangers were soon succeeded by the Los Angeles City Guards, another volunteer group. Neither force was particularly efficient and Los Angeles became known for its violence, gambling and vice. The first paid force was created in 1869, when six officers were hired to serve under City Marshal William C. Warren. By 1900, under John M. Glass, there were 70 officers, one for every 1,500 people. In 1903, with the start of the Civil Service, this force was increased to 200. |

The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) is the police department of the city of Los Angeles in the United States.
Notes
During the third day trial in Turnabout Serenade, Klavier Gavin, in order to explain a discrepancy between police firearms training and the large amount of recoil with the murder weapon in that case (a .45-caliber handgun), comments that the standard issue sidearm given to police is a .38-caliber revolver. While this statement would make sense in Japan (as .38-caliber weapons are issued to police there), it is factually false in the United States; American police, after a shootout in Miami in 1986, began to switch duty weapons from .38-caliber revolvers to semi-automatic pistols with higher capacities and improved stopping power. Additionally, the real-life LAPD issues .45-caliber handguns as an optional weapon of choice for officers.
