a commander with the Metropolitan Police Department was placed on paid administrative leave in mid-May after being accused of falsifying crime data
Key bureaucrats want DC & its police to look better than they are?
The police union has accused Pulliam of deliberately falsifying the data, and claimed that police supervisors in the department have been manipulating crime data to make it seem as though violent crime has fallen considerably in the district compared to 2024.
Fraternal Order of Police Chairman Gregg Pemberton said, "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...[lesser] felony assault is not a category of crime that's listed on the department's daily crime stats. 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."
I don't care what Pulliam & others are, for their politics. Burn fakers.
At the time of NBC 4’s report in mid-July, crime data showed that violent crime was down 28 percent. As of Thursday, DC Police statistics said that violent crime is down 26 percent from the same period in 2024, and all crime is down seven percent.
Pemberton said in response to the 28 percent statistic, "That's preposterous. There's absolutely no way crime could be down 28%. Last year [2024] they [preposterously, already] suggested that it went down 34%."
But - Possible, that Pulliam is framed or scapegoated, for higher-up fakers.
Pulliam being placed on leave also came around one week after he filed a complaint against Executive Assistant Chief of Police Andre Wright. Pulliam’s wife, Capt. Rachel Pulliam, was transferred to midnights in the 7th District from the Youth Division in April by Chief Smith. Three sources familiar with the incident said that Wright ordered Pulliam to pack of his wife’s belongings personally and deliver then to her new assignment himself.
Libs try to make hay, from "dramatically dropping" crime in DC.
Example - Lib at NYT & MSNBC. He cites Axios outlet (lib).

While Trump claims that crime is "totally out of control" in Washington to justify a possible takeover of the nation's capital, crime has dropped dramatically in the city, with violent crime down 26% from last year.
Get it?
DC is already well-run - by Dems & libs - right? Hitler Trump lied again - right?
No.
DC FAKES THEIR CRIME DATA - reportedly. Legit question.
Schiff instructed staffers to use IC their contacts & media leaks for to "compel public opinion"............. .......
Estonia & Germany dream of WW3, neo-Left Fourth Reich, with Nazi symbols only re-coded to blue & yellow
