Multiple senior officials in the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Police Department are facing termination or discipline as investigations into alleged manipulation of crime statistics intensify.

According to multiple law enforcement sources who spoke with The Washington Post, several high-ranking officers, including two assistant chiefs, have received or are expected to receive disciplinary notices tied to an internal affairs probe into crime data practices.

Assistant Chief LaShay Makal and Second District Commander Tatjana Savoy have been placed on administrative leave.

Both have been linked to the crime statistics investigation, where officials are alleged to have lied or manipulated the city’s crime statistics.

Former Third District Commander Michael Pulliam is also under review.

He was placed on leave in 2025 after allegations that crime classifications in his district were altered. Pulliam has denied wrongdoing but remains subject to possible discipline.

Assistant Chief Andre Wright is facing a separate investigation after allegedly inappropriate text messages were found on his phone. He had already been placed on administrative leave.

The internal probe is focused on whether department supervisors downgraded serious crimes to less severe categories, potentially making crime rates appear lower than they were.

The investigation has drawn scrutiny from the Department of Justice and congressional Republicans.

House Oversight Committee members have demanded the release of all records related to the probe and said they will continue pursuing the matter.

“Make no mistake: top D.C. law enforcement terminations are due to the Oversight Committee exposing how DC Police leaders manipulated crime data and cultivated a culture of fear to push an agenda,” wrote House Oversight Committee Chair Rep James Comer.

“This isn’t over. I want every document from MPD’s internal investigation.”
