Just as Chicago P.D. gears up for its highly anticipated Season 13, the series is experiencing another emotional shift: a fan-favorite cast member is officially leaving the show—and this time, it’s for deeply personal reasons.
Toya Turner, who portrayed Officer Kiana Cook during Season 12, has confirmed she will not return for the upcoming season. Though her time with the Intelligence Unit was brief, Cook quickly earned admiration for her strong sense of justice and her emotionally grounded performance.
In a heartfelt farewell shared with fans, Turner said: “This role stretched me in ways I never imagined. I’m walking away stronger, and forever grateful.” She emphasized that her departure wasn’t due to creative differences or behind-the-scenes conflict, but rather a conscious decision to prioritize her personal life and pursue other creative endeavors.
Turner’s exit comes amid a wave of changes behind the scenes, with Chicago P.D. actively casting a new female lead described as “a loose cannon” ATF agent. While this shift may bring exciting energy to Season 13, fans are mourning the loss of a character they believe still had more story to tell.
Showrunners have yet to confirm how Officer Cook will be written out, but sources hint that her sendoff will be respectful and emotionally impactful.
With Voight’s team continuing to evolve and long-running characters facing new pressures, Cook’s departure is another reminder that no one in the Intelligence Unit is ever truly safe from change.
