Adopt the Municipal Police Oversight Act, require maintenance of Brady and Giglio lists, ban no-knock warrants, and change requirements on law enforcement officer records

Nebraska's LB 276 requires cities with full-time police departments (over 5,000 residents) to establish independent citizen oversight boards by January 2028. These boards will investigate public complaints about police misconduct, shootings, discrimination, and internal complaints, and report findings to police departments, city leaders, and state registries. The bill also mandates public Brady and Giglio lists (detailing prosecutorial disclosure obligations) and bans no-knock search warrants. It requires cities to fund these boards independently from police departments and ensures investigators have no prior law enforcement ties. The law applies directly to municipal law enforcement agencies in qualifying cities across Nebraska.
