Conclusion Meanings:

'Substantiated': The misconduct occurred and it violated the rules. The NYPD has discretion over what, if any, discipline is imposed.

'Unable to Determine': The alleged conduct was investigated but could not determine both that the conduct occurred and that it broke the rules.

'Unfounded': Evidence suggests that the event or alleged conduct did not occur.

'Within NYPD Guidelines': The conduct occurred but did not violate the NYPD's own rules, which often give officers significant discretion.
