7 DC police officers under investigation for misconductWASHINGTON - Seven D.C. police officers and supervisors are under investigation for confiscating illegal guns without making arrests, according to Metropolitan Police Department Chief Robert J. Contee III."In these cases the suspect was not arrested, and the suspect should’ve been arrested," Contee explained during a Friday evening press conference."The firearm was taken and placed into evidence, however, the suspect was allowed to go free, and that’s just not the way that we conduct business in the Metropolitan Police Department."Contee went on to explain that while those officers placed the gun into evidence, their written version of what happened during the seizure did not match body camera footage of the incident.We expect our members that when they encounter armed individuals on the street who are in possession of illegal firearms that those people are taken into custody."
