Aug 12 - D.C. Police Commander Suspended And Accused Of Altering Crime Statistics - page 2

What are you talking about my cousin was barry farms captain before he got locked and now those apartments are gone.
yes I know wyt people and rich gays been around the city in their areas..
As a older man now I say fu#k it let them clean it out. If you not commiting crime and doing your thing and not hurting people or selling sh1t that will you have nothing to worry about as far as all these Trump plans for the city

interesting way to justify your invasion, just flat out say the statistics were fake so you feel justified going in lol

You think it's false?
The investigation goes back before Trump announced taking over DC.

I see your logic though but it doesn't add up

Even if you go by the stats there's two outlooks.

Dems: wtf is he doing crime has gone down 20 30% whatever. It's all whatever you want to call it to justify it if your against it

Those supposed down numbers are progress on the surface but dig deeper they still after the whatever percent you drop it too is still are at a national high.

Why the fu#k are Democrats against this? Cause they hate Trump ? Do we all not want I hope most do on Boxden that is full of older guys some that still might think they "trappers " loll but most are blue or white collar workers just living life.

neighborhoods houses town houses apartments want this this same pressure in their area. Stop the stupid fake petty thug mentality sh1t or he's doing cause it's racist sh1t man your a$s is calling the police for help as quick as anybody else unless you are packing a gun if it calls for in it in a situation you might have to put somebody down.

it's the nations capitol . Clean it the fu#k up

Where is your family from originally ?

Saying "let them clean it out" ignores the democratic norms, legal limits, and real data showing crime is down not out of control. Federal military style presence might sound tough, but it doesn’t address root causes of crime, and risks doing more harm than good. FBI Director Kash Patel himself revealed that the U.S. murder rate is on track to be the lowest in modern history, undermining the premise that D.C. is spiraling out of control. Trump’s real motive is more political than public safety driven he doesn't care about none of that it's literally the same sh1t he try to pull in LA during protests such as in Los Angeles when claims of lawlessness didn’t align with reality. Bruh I'm telling please don't fall for this BS he's trying to pull.

Umm but your just making allegations

Umm but your just making allegations

The FOP alleged that officers in the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department were instructed to downgrade violent crime reports to lesser offenses.


WASHINGTON — A D.C. police commander is under investigation for allegedly altering crime statistics in his district, NBC 4 Washington reported.

Commander Michael Pulliam, who led the 3rd District covering neighborhoods including Adams Morgan and Columbia Heights, was placed on paid administrative leave in mid-May. The leave came approximately one week after he filed an equal employment opportunity complaint against Executive Assistant Chief Andre Wright, according to multiple law enforcement sources.

Five sources familiar with the matter told News4 that Pulliam is being investigated for questionable changes to reported crime data. Pulliam has denied the allegations.

The Fraternal Order of Police (FOP), which represents D.C. officers, has raised concerns about what it says is a broader practice of manipulating crime classifications to show declines in violent crime. FOP Chairman Gregg Pemberton said officers are frequently instructed by supervisors to downgrade serious felony reports to lesser offenses.

The union claims the practice is being directed by the MPD command staff in an effort to keep reported crime figures low.

According to MPD data reviewed Monday, violent crime in D.C. was reported as down 28% compared to the same time last year. By Thursday, the figure was listed at 25%, with overall crime down 8%.

Pemberton called the numbers misleading.

“There’s absolutely no way crime could be down 28%. Last year they suggested that it went down 34%,” he said.

The investigation into Pulliam follows a separate incident involving his wife, Capt. Rachel Pulliam, who was reassigned from the Youth Division to a midnight shift in the 7th District in April.

MPD Chief Pamela Smith declined to comment on the investigation but released a statement addressing the broader concerns raised by the union.

“Any irregularity in crime data brought to my attention will be addressed immediately,” Smith said. “I do not condone any official reclassifying criminal offenses outside the guidelines set in MPD policy.”



“When our members respond to the scene of a felony offense where there is a victim reporting that a felony occurred, inevitably there will be a lieutenant or a captain that will show up on that scene and direct those members to take a report for a lesser offense,” Fraternal Order of Police Chairman Gregg Pemberton said. “So, instead of taking a report for a shooting or a stabbing or a carjacking, they will order that officer to take a report for a theft or an injured person to the hospital or a felony assault, which is not the same type of classification.”

The police department's command staff is focusing on two categories in order to get the numbers to fall, Pemberton said: armed with a dangerous weapon and injured person to the hospital.

“When management officials are directing officers to take reports for felony assault, or if they're going back into police databases and changing offenses to felony assault, felony assault is not a category of crime that's listed on the department's daily crime stats,” Pemberton said. “It's also not something that's a requirement of the FBI's uniform crime reporting program. So, by changing criminal offenses from, for example, ADW bat or ADW gun to felony assault, that would avoid both the MPD and the FBI from reporting that as a part one or a felony offense.”

The union has been gathering evidence for some time now by looking at reports and talking with officers all over the city, Pemberton said.

“What we've heard through our members and through members of management that were willing to talk with the union is that this is a directive from the command staff, is that they wanna make sure that these classifications of these reports are adjusted over time to make sure that the overall crime stats stay down,” Pemberton said. “And this is deliberately done.”

As of last Monday when News4 spoke with Pemberton, D.C. crime data shows violent crime was down 28%. Thursday, the department’s website said violent crime is down 25% when compared to the same time last year, and overall crime is down 8%.

As for the claims made by the union, Smith released this statement: “The Metropolitan Police Department is committed to upholding the trust and the confidence of the public. Any irregularity in crime data brought to my attention will be addressed immediately. I do not condone any official reclassifying criminal offenses outside the guidelines set in MPD policy. Any allegation of this behavior will be dealt with through our internal processes, which will ensure those members are held accountable. I have the utmost confidence in the command staff leadership currently in place across the Metropolitan Police Department.”

Wright declined to comment to News4.



Cookin the books.

Lmaoooo. Pemberton is the same doofus that tried getting some Trump protestors hemmed up with doctored Project Veritas videos. Sounds like Ol Gregg just wants a promotion.

This him?

You just like the jobs numbers?

But what does this have to do with the unredacted release of the Epstein files?

We've got child rapist running our country.

here we gooo..

Unlimited DC police overtime? Yea probably. Oh and Pemberton just happens to be the police union chief and a big trump guy? Weird.

Yea buddy.
You would of made a great detective. you figured it all out

Unlimted OT for police and ICE.
Yes.
as long as they bring in criminals and illegals during that time.


fu#k pemberton he's just another pig just like the pig that was cooking the books and got exposed.

Detective?

I don't think you need to be Sherlock Holmes to figure out the play here. Aren't yall supposed to be the critical thinkers?

Donnie Diapers will move on to his next ham fisted idea and crime will go back to normal in DC. Nobody actually cares about crime unless it involves some kind of political power play. Because if they did they would address the underlying causes of it.

Bloomberg himself told me this about NYC , while in office in New York City.

OK. so what as president would you do to try and lower crime cause that's always a question or scrutinized with crime stats and percentages nationally and used as good or called out when bad on presidents.

How would you address the ROOT of crime?
You taking a soft or hard stance i mean let's be real nobody can stop crime just like they will never stop drugs from flowing in or being used.
My whole stance is for cracking down on DC then moving on to another state if successful then move on and do the same elsewhere.

No reason average working people just trying to get by live their life have to deal with unnecessary bullsh1t like car jackings robbed etc. if the young cats want to kill each over whatever we need to crackdown on them to avoid that take the guns get the shooters off the streets.
Put a presence heavier than cops in known areas to rid them of that sh1t.
You want therapy programs and youth programs yes it can and has worked but with out a strong presence of law enforcement it won't they work hand in hand

Bruh actually from the city I can tell DC is not violent. Y'all looking at this surface level bruh he's basically continuing racist rhetoric that's more harmful and divisive. When he uses the terms like gangs in DC etc. he's speaking to a specific group of people that hold this weirdo black boogyman imagination in their heads. DC doesn't have gangs there so when I hear this sh1t it p1ss me off. These mf that visit here already hold biases against blacks so when Trump do sh1t like this it doesn't help. This action not going to stop anything it just further oppress the communities there. They tried this before it over helps short term it's not a viable solution he's literally wasting funds. All this does is pushes crime to PG county.

Donnie diapers lol

Aight big guy so how do you address these underlying causes of it you speak of.
What's your great plan to address all of this opposed to Trump's.

I hope it's not fu#king mental health programs an sh1t smh

"DC not dangerous" Just a couple years ago the city nearly reach a murder rate of 40 per 100,000

The nation state capital is closer in murder rate to narco ran towns in Colombia than it is to Seattle a city a city with a murder rate 4.5 per 100,000 with a barely larger population than DC....

We can absolutely have a strong stance on violent crime but it needs to be smart, targeted, and rooted in both enforcement and prevention. Over-militarizing streets isn’t a long-term solution, it’s a short-term spectacle. You can’t just hop from city to city with federal troops and suspend local authority the Constitution limits that to short-term emergencies, and it’s historically been abused for political reasons. Sustainable crime reduction requires buy-in from the community and local institutions, not just a show of force.
Economic opportunities job training, apprenticeships, and housing stability programs. Youth engagement proven to cut recidivism. Bruh they know what works and what doesn't these politicians are not dumb it's a fu#king game they been playing for more than half a century in DC pertaining the black communities plain and simple they want us out the city. DC have been primarily black they don't like it. Weather its covertly or overtly they been trying forever Dems with gentrification or Rep with police. Tbh it's very annoying.
