Lincoln Police Sign "Hold Cops Accountable" Agreement...Then Dance

Lincoln Police Chief Jeff Bliemeister, police officers and community leaders met at the site of the George Floyd memorial Wednesday afternoon to sign an agreement to “Hold Cops Accountable.”

The Lincoln Police Department agreed to attend and be engaged with community members at a monthly event called “Hold Cops Accountable” that will be facilitated by the HCA committee in a town hall meeting. That’s where community members can come to talk about what they are happy or not happy about with the LPD.

“This is not going to happen overnight, this isn’t going to happen next week,” said John Goodwin the executive director of the Malone Center. “This is a long term process. My ancestors died for this.”

Then they did the Cupid’s Shuffle!
