"Brooklyn's 81st Precinct probed by NYPD for fudging stats; felonies allegedly marked as misdemeanors,"
BY Rocco Parascandola - NEW YORK DAILY NEWS P

A Brooklyn precinct is under investigation for manipulating statistics to make its cops look like better crimefighters, the Daily News has learned.

Two probes are centered around whether Bedford-Stuyvesant's 81st Precinct recorded felonies as misdemeanors and refused to take complaints from victims - all in an effort to drive down the crime rate, sources said.
