In a statement issued Nov. 11, Box Elder County confirmed that two separate reviews were requested following the January incident.
An independent investigation identified violations of county and sheriff's office policies.
Those violations included conduct unbecoming of the sheriff and improper possession, transportation and storage of alcohol in a county vehicle.
Investigators confirmed Potter had alcohol in his county-owned vehicle and admitted to regularly transporting alcohol and keeping a cooler containing beer in the vehicle, violating county policies.
The Box Elder County Commission issued Potter a public letter of censure on May 27.
The censure outlined three policy violations, including conduct unbecoming of the sheriff after Potter engaged in a heated confrontation with a private citizen and activated his vehicle's emergency lights while off duty.

Sure, he wasn't found guilty of drunk driving... as he's the one that runs the county (in middle of nowhere Utah), but who has a cooler of beers in their patrol car, and isn't drinking on the job? Mother Theresa? Mr Rogers?
