华盛顿特区监察长发布报告称，该市警察局的犯罪统计系统经历了"长期、系统性的内部控制失效"1。报告对2015年至2025年期间的数据进行了审查，虽未发现欺诈意图，但揭示了存在严重的数据分类错误1。
根据调查发现，2013年独立审查部门的解散成为问题的根源。该部门被撤销后，犯罪分类错误和不完整的数据说明长期未被发现1。美国检察官Jeanine Pirro办公室也发现大量报告被误分类，以降低犯罪率1。共和党众议院监督与政府改革委员会则指控前警察局长操纵了数据1。
为解决这一系统性问题，监察长提出了5项建议，其中包括建立独立的犯罪报告审查机制1。此外，5月份有13名警察因此被停职接受调查，其中11人仍处于停职状态，2人已离职1。
Washington D.C.'s Inspector General has released a report documenting what it characterizes as a "prolonged, systemic breakdown" of internal controls within the Metropolitan Police Department's crime statistics system 1. The investigation examined data spanning from 2015 to 2025 and identified significant classification errors, though it found no evidence of intentional fraud 1.
The report attributes the root of these problems to the 2013 dissolution of an independent review unit that previously caught crime categorization mistakes and incomplete documentation 1. With this oversight function eliminated, data misclassification went undetected for years. The Inspector General's office has proposed five remedial measures, including the establishment of an independent crime reporting review function 1. These findings align with earlier investigations: the Republican-led House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform alleged that a former police chief manipulated data, while U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro's office discovered numerous reports had been miscategorized to artificially lower crime statistics 1.
The scandal prompted disciplinary action within the department. In May, 13 officers were suspended pending investigation into their involvement; as of the report's publication, 11 remain suspended and two have resigned 1.
