SOUTH SIOUX CITY, Neb. (KCAU) — South Sioux City was the host to dozens of law enforcement officers from across Nebraska for the Fraternal Order of Police State Conference.

The event lets officers connect with others and learn about recent legislation. Several speakers spoke on how the murder of George Floyd in 2020 caused a shift in attitudes towards police, but that shift was less than negative in Nebraska.

"We know that the support from law enforcement, especially across the state, has actually grown because of that," said Sgt. Anthony Conner, the Nebraska Fraternal Order of Police president. "I think people saw how tough our job is because it was on the front cover of every paper, and [the] top story of every news. So they saw how tough our job was, so support has actually grown."
