Original Note:
NNN According to the Washington Examiner the FBI has been filling in the gaps in police reporting with estimates, many of them being far too optimistic about crime rates. Whether it amounts to "cooking the books" is a matter of opinion in the absence of provable motive. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/restoring-america/fairness-justice/2953562/bad-data-from-the-fbi-mislead-about-crime/
