Former Police Chief Ryan Lee faced multiple complaints from at least nine Boise Police Department employees, including allegations of unethical behavior, retaliation against subordinates, and creating a hostile work environment. Specific incidents include quashing an investigation into an officer’s inconsistent statements during an off-duty shooting case, protecting an officer with a history of excessive force due to a personal relationship, and hiring officers from his previous department with questionable histories. Lee resigned in 2022 at the mayor’s request following these complaints. ([idahostatesman.com](https://www.idahostatesman.com/news/local/community/boise/article287633960.html?utm_source=openai))
