Justice Department investigating DC police over Trump allegations of ‘fake' crime data
The Department of Justice is reportedly investigating whether Washington, D.C. officials manipulated crime data after Donald Trump accused the capital city of creating 'fake crime numbers' to undermine his federal takeover. On his Truth Social account on Monday, Trump accused D.C. officials of manipulating data to create a 'false illusion of safety.' 'This is a very bad and dangerous thing to do, and they are under serious investigation for so doing!' Trump wrote. Last week, the president declared what he called a 'crime emergency' to justify his administration taking control of the city's Metropolitan Police Department while deploying National Guard troops and federal law enforcement agents into the city's streets, claiming that the White House must 'rescue' the city from 'crime, bloodshed, bedlam and squalor and worse.' He claimed the city is overrun with 'bloodthirsty criminals, roving mobs of wild youth, drugged-out maniacs and homeless people,' though reports of violent crime in the city have plummeted, along with national downward trends of violent crime rates. The capital city 'was the most unsafe 'city' in the United States, and perhaps the World,' he wrote on Monday. 'Now, in just a short period of time, it is perhaps the safest, and getting better every single hour!' Despite the administration's claims that crime is 'out of control' in D.C., the data shows the opposite: 2024 saw the lowest violent crime rates in the capital in more than 30 years, while reports of violent crime within the first seven months of 2025 have plunged 27 percent from last year. Homicides are down 11 percent, according to city data. Those rates mirror national downward trends, according to FBI crime data released during Trump's administration.
