After a police officer takes a report, the stats office upstairs, changes a lot of them to lesser crimes. For example, If a report does not say "signs of forced entry" or "attempted entry, damage to lock and bent doorframe, and just written as damage to door, many many times it will be changed to criminal mischief instead of attempted burglary or burglary. The nitwits that run 1 police plaza are afraid once the "reported" statistics are released, that the police officers in the precints, many of whom keep photocopies of the real reports they take, will add it all up as a precinct and have "real smoking gun proof" that they can use in a federal court. It is as common if not more so that fixing a ticket was. Since the dept is so badly managed, micromanaged from the puzzle palace, and cops are so fed up with the dept. they are starting to ensure the "Compstat fix" is prevented by very carefully writing a full page with as many details as possible, exactly imitating the language in the corresponding penal law code including every necessary element of the crime so the stats office cant shitcan the number. number meaning another hit, or number like 1,2,3 complaint number for the crime reported. There are people in the precinct in charge of calling up the complainant to ask them if they are really sure of the dollar amount of the stolen or damaged items, or similar tactics, in order to reduce the number of complaints on paper and/or the dollar amount of the value for the crime. because many times, if under a certain dollar amount, the crime is classified as a misdemeanor instead of a felony. Also the stats office in every precint has a giant shredder to shred the actual report if it is changed and rewritten. It is all done under the mayor and police comissioner's, and all of the chiefs direct orders. This is what is expected of precinct CO's- commanding offiers, and if they do not do a good job, they do not get promoted to deputy inspector. Police officer to captain is just a promotional exam, if you pass, they have to promote you. from dep. inspector, up, its an appointment. If the numbers are too high, crimewise, CO does not get promoted. This is all done behind the police officers that take the real initial reports backs and hidden from them. very secretive. Ray Kelly, Mr. Bloomberg, and all of the chiefs involved should all be fired or put in jail for it. The FBI will not investigate because lower crime stats are good for them too. The property rates stay up, people who would leave NYC dont leave because everyone believes the lies. Really Really messed up. If anyone had an idea how really unsafe NYC is, they would all leave if they had enough money to leave. Most if not all of the reported crimes with unknown perps, or the victim can not positively id, are declassified to a lower crime. That in and of itself is a crime. I sincerely hope that you and everyone else goes to protest in front of 1 police plaza, and every precinct in NYC, and the real numbers are released. The foil thing will take 3 years til they are forced to release them and it will be redacted and blacked out. This is the real story of the NYPD, 100,000 times bigger and worse than the summons scandal. good luck.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6850750806594927202.post-89765665991669536002011-05-25T22:53:52.985-04:002011-05-25T22:53:52.985-04:00I didn't say anything about angry, yelling peo...I didn't say anything about angry, yelling people.
