Written by In 2011, then-Police Chief Adam Howard Jones responded to a domestic violence complaint involving his brother, Travis Jones. Despite being in uniform and on duty, Jones failed to report the incident or take appropriate action as mandated by the Cohabitant Abuse Procedures Act. This inaction led to charges of official misconduct and witness tampering. The case underwent multiple legal proceedings, including a dismissal by a district judge, an appeal, and reinstatement by the Utah Supreme Court in 2016. Jones was accused of mishandling the complaint and attempting to cover up his involvement. He later filed a lawsuit for wrongful dismissal against Summit County, former County Sheriff David Edmunds, and the city of Kamas.
