Written by In June 2019, Officer Lewis was involved in a fatal shooting of Thomas Gay Jr. during a welfare check. Reports indicate that Officer Lewis deployed a Taser multiple times without proper training or certification, as required by department policy. The internal investigation revealed that neither Officer Lewis nor Officer Pitts violated BPD policies, but a Use of Force Review Board was never convened, and required Taser data was not downloaded. The incident raised concerns about training deficiencies and policy adherence within the department. ([casetext.com](https://casetext.com/case/burke-v-city-of-bartlesville?utm_source=openai))
