Season 4[]
In Don't Bury This Case, he is called in when Kelly Severide comes under investigation for a hit and run. He informs Hank that Severide couldn't be released on bond because it'd seem like favoritism, due to him being a firefighter and gives a deadline for investigation. After a carjacking ring was uncovered and all involved were arrested, Hank tells Kot, telling him that one of the culprits Mike Cox confessed that his friend Ryan Novak killed the girl but he says they'll still get Cox because he is an accessory. Kot also reveals that Severide, who was framed will be released because of this new evidence.
During Don't Read the News, Intelligence request his aid in getting a familial DNA sweep to uncover a cold case of serial rapes and murders. Although he has reservations on such tactics, he agrees and when the unit bring in a suspect Ricky Barnes, Kot tells them that the latter matched and has him detained. However, Intelligence was not convinced, as Ricky would've been so young when he committed the first murder and the subsequent rapes that followed. Their assumptions were accurate, as Ricky was only matched because of his close relation to the real culprit, his father Franklin Barnes and the latter was soon arrested after another test confirmed it.
