What is the average salary for a detective?
There are different types of detectives (e.g. private detectives and police detectives), plus there are other factors that will determine pay rate, such as level of experience and geographic location. But here's some general info, published by the U.S. Department of Labor:
Police and sheriff's patrol officers had median annual earnings of $42,270 in 2002. The middle 50 percent earned between $32,300 and $53,500. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $25,270, and the highest 10 percent earned more than $65,330. Median annual earnings were $47,090 in State government, $42,020 in local government, and $41,600 in Federal Government.
In 2002, median annual earnings of police and detective supervisors were $61,010. The middle 50 percent earned between $47,210 and $74,610. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $36,340, and the highest 10 percent earned more than $90,070. Median annual earnings were $78,230 in Federal Government, $64,410 in State government, and $59,830 in local government.
In 2002, median annual earnings of detectives and criminal investigators were $51,410. The middle 50 percent earned between $39,010 and $65,980. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $31,010, and the highest 10 percent earned more than $80,380. Median annual earnings were $66,500 in Federal Government, $47,700 in local government, and $46,600 in State government.
Federal law provides special salary rates to Federal employees who serve in law enforcement. Additionally, Federal special agents and inspectors receive law enforcement availability pay (LEAP)�equal to 25 percent of the agent�s grade and step�awarded because of the large amount of overtime that these agents are expected to work. For example, in 2003 FBI agents enter Federal service as GS-10 employees on the pay scale at a base salary of $39,115, yet earned about $48,890 a year with availability pay. They can advance to the GS-13 grade level in field nonsupervisory assignments at a base salary of $61,251, which is worth $76,560 with availability pay. FBI supervisory, management, and executive positions in grades GS-14 and GS-15 pay a base salary of about $72,381 or $85,140 a year, respectively, and equaled $90,480 or $106,430 per year including availability pay. Salaries were slightly higher in selected areas where the prevailing local pay level was higher. Because Federal agents may be eligible for a special law enforcement benefits package, applicants should ask their recruiter for more information.
Total earnings for local, State, and special police and detectives frequently exceed the stated salary because of payments for overtime, which can be significant. In addition to the common benefits�paid vacation, sick leave, and medical and life insurance�most police and sheriffs� departments provide officers with special allowances for uniforms. Because police officers usually are covered by liberal pension plans, many retire at half-pay after 20 or 25 years of service.

Lowell Lee Andrews was an 18-year-old college student from Woolcott, Kansas. On Thanksgiving break in 1958, he shot and killed his father, mother, and 20-year-old sister. He rifled the house to give the appearance of a robbery-homicide. Then he dropped the guns into the river. He drove to his rooming house and spoke to several people, and then went to the movies, where he spoke to the cashier and the usher -- thus hoping to establish an alibi. Then he returned home and called the police.
He stated that his motive was to inherit his father's money, a smallish estate. No one knows what set him off on that particular night. He never showed any remorse for the killings, claiming he really didn't even know why he did it.
He was hanged at Leavenworth Prison in 1960.
"In Cold Blood," Truman Capote's account of the Cliutter family murders in 1959 led to widespread awareness of Andrews. He was incarcerated with Perry Smith and Dick Hickock who murdered the Clutters and were hanged for their crimes in 1965.
Did a serial killer ever work with the police?
One of the more memorable collaborations was serial killer Ted Bundy and Robert Keppel, a member of the Green River Task Force in Washington State. Bundy offered his unique 'take' on the serial killer known as the Green River Killer. Although it is doubtful how much help he really was, police would have tried anything to catch the killer. And Bundy drummed up some publicity for himself, which of course made it worth his while.
Added: The key word in the question is "work WITH" the police - it does not imply they worked for the police

Woman killed husband by shooting him?
Although we hear a lot about men killing their wives and girlfriends, there are also far too many wives who kill husbands. They are a very long list, but wives less frequently kill them by shooting them themselves, women tend to use more subtle means or get someone else to do the dirty work. That being said, some of the more notorious cases that come to mind are:
Betty Broderick in 1989 shoots her ex-husband and his new wife while they slept in their bed in their own home near San Diego, CA. She claimed that she "jumped and the gun went off" (Betty just happened to be in their bedroom in the middle of the night with a loaded gun). After two notorious trials, the first ended with a hung jury, she was finally convicted.
Dante Sutorius in 1996 shot her her husband in Cincinnati, OH trying to make it look like suicide. She was a charmer who went from man to man, marrying "up", spending his money and moving on.
Terri Gilbert in 1996 shot her husband in Albuquerque, NM claiming she thought her was a burglar. The same woman had been cleared of killing her ex-husband in 1974, claiming self defence.
Piper Rountree in 2004 shot her ex-husband in Richmond, VA. She claimed she was at home in Texas, but her cell phone records gave her away. She had traveled by air from Texas wearing a wig in order to confuse authorities into thinking it could have been her twin sister.
Anne Marie Stout in 2004 shot her husband several times as he sat on the sofa in her living room. When she was unable to load his body into their truck, she called her sister for help, who in turn called the authorities.
Barbara Ford, a recent widow with two sons, marries Russell Stager, a popular HS coach. Nine years later she is once again a widow. She claims to have accidently shot her husband with a pistol he kept under his pillow after hearing a noise in the night. She may well have gotten away with the "accident" story if Russell's ex-wife, who had remained friends with Russell, had not advised police that Barbara's first husband had also died in bed of a gunshot wound which Barbara had explained as an accident. Her pattern, it turned out, was to marry, spend all the money, run up the debts, kill the husband, collect the insurance, and move on happily ever after.

Information about Ellis A Chen MD convicted of murder in 1988?
I could not find any information on the actual crime for which he was convicted. So I can't speak to that. I could not find any "legal help for the wrongly convicted" sites that might be working on his case. In fact, the only information I could find on him was provided by himself. Not a good sign. Also not a good sign that his sites are all about his innocence and how he's been "born again".
Many people are unaware or just never thought about the fact that sociopaths are not necessarily criminals or commit criminal acts. They are people living among us that have learned to fit in to society even if they don't have a conscience or feel empathy for others. They are motivated to fit in because they want a "normal" life like everyone else.
Then there are the sociopaths that have not been able to do that. One of the common tactics for these is to immerse themselves in Christianity in order to mimic the attitudes and appearance of a Christian. These people eventually "slip up" and people around them can't believe that this person could do such a thing. It isn't necessarily murder, more often things like blatant adultery or embezzlement or even something they inadvertently say. If you are aware that these people are around us, it's easier to spot the signs.
I don't know enough about Mr. Chen to evaluate. But hopefully the generalities will give you some insight. And who knows, stranger things have happened, he could be innocent.

What is meant by Justifiable homicide and excusable homicide?
I'm not familiar with the term "Excusable" Homicide. Justifiable Homicide occurs when it is ruled (usually a Grand Jury) that a death of someone was proper and occurred within the bounds of law (i.e.: the shooting death of an armed bank robber by a police officer).
