Crime data graphed

    See this NBC channel 4 article, and take this data with a 'grain of salt'?
    This article is another DC police officer making similar allegations.
    Note that crime statistics have ALWAYS been manipulated by police forces nationwide. From this Washington Post article,
    "After Michael Brown, an unarmed Black man, was killed in 2014 by police in Ferguson, Mo., a Post investigation found that data reported to the FBI on fatal police shootings was undercounted by more than half. That gap has widened in recent years. By 2021, only a third of departments’ fatal shootings appeared in the FBI database.
    This is largely because local police departments are not required to report these incidents to the federal government. Also compounding the problem: an updated FBI system for reporting data and confusion among local law enforcement about reporting responsibilities."

    This article from the Brennan Center for Justice puts context on these issues.

    The data:

    1. District of Columbia Crime, the MPD Carjacking Dashboard , and the Shot spotter data on a map.
    2. Prince George's County Crime.
    3. Montgomery County Crime.
    4. Baltimore City Crime.
    5. Virginia Data is not generally available.
