Travis Turner – Lone Peak Police Department

Written by CBKN76

In September 2008, Sergeant Travis Turner made a drunken phone call to his ex-wife, during which he threatened to kill Lehi Police Chief Chad Smith. The call was recorded and reported to authorities, leading to Turner’s administrative leave and subsequent termination in December 2008 for misconduct. The Utah Court of Appeals upheld his termination in June 2010, citing conduct unbecoming an officer and acts evidencing moral turpitude. Additionally, the Utah Police Officer Standards and Training Council suspended Turner’s certification for a year.
