This will never get paid out, and the officials involved will hopefully see criminal charges. California capped salaries in 1996, but the people involved in this scam held a special election that pretty much nobody in Bell knew about just to designate themselves a charter city, which allowed them to sidestep the salary caps. And then they started cranking up their own salaries and never telling their constituents about it.
