A Renton police disciplinary review panel has largely cleared an officer of wrongdoing over his business ties to a prominent member of the Proud Boys extremist group who now faces federal terrorism charges related to January’s attack on the U.S. Capitol.
But the panel also found Officer Trevor Davidson’s past business partnerships with Ethan Nordean broke a department rule that requires officers to first get approval before undertaking outside employment. For that, Davidson has received a written reprimand.
