This Sounds Familiar
Imagine if we had this sort of accountability here in Chicago:
The [Washington DC] Metropolitan Police Department’s internal investigators have sustained accusations against at least 15 high-ranking police officials—including captains, commanders, and assistant chiefs—in a sweeping investigation into crime statistics, according to two sources familiar with the matter.
[...] One of IAD’s findings, according to a source, is that Second District Cmdr. Tatjana Savoy directed two captains to reclassify as many as 390 thefts as taking property without a right, a misdemeanor. Thefts can be classified as felonies or misdemeanors depending on the circumstances, but they are all reported in D.C.’s daily crime report and to the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting program. Reclassifying thefts as taking property could give the appearance that the crime is decreasing. Total thefts dropped by 10 percent from 2024 to 2025, according to statistics posted to MPD’s website.
The article devolves after pointing out what the NYPD and CPD did for years - killing crime on paper, downgrading and reclassifying everything that didn't involve dead body, though there was a bit of that going on at times, too.
No one seems to have gone to prison, so it will likely continue in one form or another.

Cooking crime stats. Am shocked to hear that. Chicago PD being on the up and up would never resort to such shenanigans.

The chief commie clod engulfed by commie clowns for protection? Could they be that 150 man detail?!!!They are certainly some raggedy scumbags.
They need to run some type of investigation on bosses in CPD. I would never trust IAD (BIA) they are in on the corruption. Everyone at the top needs to go. All of the people at BIA are corrupt and we need to bring in the Feds.
Years?! Decades! Its a criminal damage vs. Burglary, theft vs. Strong arm and the big one.... death inv. Vs. Homicide. Dude, she's in a suit case, with bullet holes. Thats a real mystery.
Cooking the books! Massaging the numbers! Killing Crime stats! What are the other names CPD used to bring down crime? I worked review and every day I read the reports coming into the district. Then my job was to reclassify them…..get it. This way crime is down. But the best is when the Detective division would call the review office after the case made it to them…..where they would strongly suggest certain cases be adjusted! So it can be closed faster?
We have been doing this for years…..every new commander in a district gets a crash course in it. Just to save his job. And every one else in line under him does the same thing.
And when Compstat arrived we thought it was all over. But it was just another boondoggle to cover the crime number rise…..
Did you miss the fact they brought in a Retired FBI guy as Superintendent and his hand picked IAD director of investigations. Another retired FBI guy.
Take a look at what happen then. The cheating scandle in HQ where several Sgts in IAD are promoted? This FBI guy was suppose to clean up IAD…..did not work!
Over 50 years ago, being a young and gullible P.O. in the 1st District, wrote a Theft Case Report for a very prestigious woman. She was attending a social gala at the Conrad Hilton Hotel and her very expensive Sable Stole was stolen from her during the cocktail hour. Being young and charming, I composed the case report with all of the facts given to me by Ms. Gold Coast. Giving her the RD # for her insurances company and I went on my way. First thing at the next roll call I was called in to the office of the Commander and was instructed by him, with the Review Officer by his side, to re-write the incident on a Lost and Found Case Report. Hum . . . Does that still go on with the CPD ?
Tatjana? Seriously?
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
I second that
Falsifying info on an UCR reports wouldn't this consider lying to the FBI?
She's in a suit case, with bullet holes. Lenny Brisco would say; looks like the perp. was packing.
Wtf CPD has been doing that BS for years! Saw it first hand a few times, been victim of one myself.
I had a Sgt at 018 tell me to make I phone Robberies theft reports, 018 and 001have thousands a year
Compare the number of Homicides CPD gives VS the medical. examiner ???

Rank promotions in Chi PD is basicly established by $$$ to politicians and nepotism. Remember always, NOTHING is fairly done on the CPD, when it comes to Rank Promotions, and basically everything else.
Clutch Cargo Says:
This is something that Trump’s DOJ should be on top of, otherwise there would be indictments. Gotta truly wonder just who’s really bein paid off all these years.
IAD has been corrupt for a long time.
CPD is playing with statistics when they classify a murder as " cleared exceptional" when the killer is still walking the streets and has not been charged. The Detective Division claims they arrest someone and the ASA rejects the charges so that is enough to claim a clear-up. What utter nonsense. No further investigation? No further chance at charging the killer and going to trial ? Does not look like either will ever happen. Very creative on Someone's part.
Yea heres a wake up call... Its been happening for over 30 years.
What's needed is martial law, mass arrests of demonrats, communists, and their financiers and media, military tribunals, and gulag style prisons above the arctic circle. Stalin said "When all else fails, resort to harsh repression".
Can we get a list going of all the brass that’s retiring?
So far…

If someone buys bad dope and it's poison should it be a homicide/poisoning? If you run over someone on a sidewalk after you argued is that just a hit and run?
Yes, according to A/3, running over someone after an argument and killing them is a traffic accident. Now, move along.
Here we go again the definition of a homicide is the death of an individual at the hands of another. Not every homicide is a First Degree Murder. Only First and Second Degree Murders are counters .
The one with the B scored second from last on Lt test. Best and brightest right.
The definitions are different, genius. ME evaluates manner of death, so if it involves action by another human, it is homicide. There is no criminal-legal analysis on that determination. CPD homicide numbers involve criminal analysis.
Not saying I believe CPD numbers necessarily, but ME numbers have absolutely nothing to do with it.
So many stories to rehash here showing how true it is that CPD downgrades case reports to lower the crime statistics. It's minds boggling.
They must be teaching this stuff to recruits in the Academy. Example, dirtbag breaks into a vehicle and takes property. The kids write it up as criminal damage to vehicle and theft. I tell them to go back and re-classify as burglary to motor vehicle…..the same way it would be if it was someone’s home.
Morse last day was yesterday
Actually had this the other day. Goof runs over dude on the sidewalk intentionally after yelling gang slogans. Classified as homicide and area dets are your investigators, not MAIU
Had this the other day. After they battled it out amongst themselves, Area 1 Dets handled it not MAUI
You have to ask?
