I suspect it's more like 20:1. The job is a magnet for maladjusted violent people and the screening process is far from perfect.
I once heard it said that the typical police academy class is pretty much equally divided between people who are highly motivated toward serving the community, people just looking for a job and people who are basically sociopaths and psychopaths.
