Officer Tyson Cooper, an eight-year veteran, has been the subject of nine use-of-force investigations, nine citizen complaints, three department-initiated complaints, and one critical incident. In May 2021, Cooper allegedly choked a suspect multiple times during an arrest. Internal Affairs recommended placing him on restricted duty, but Chief Ryan Lee declined, raising concerns about their personal relationship. The decision was later reversed by Deputy Chief Ron Winegar. ([idahostatesman.com](https://www.idahostatesman.com/news/local/community/boise/article287633960.html?utm_source=openai))
