Please join us in praying for our brothers and sisters in Indy as they have yet another incident in which another two of their officers have been shot. Thankfully they are currently in stable condition and the suspect is in custody. The violence against our officers must stop. Enough is enough.

What a week. It’s taken a bit to compile all photos. But what we can say is 2026 FOP Indiana State Conference, by all measures, was a hit. Thank you to all the delegates for coming. We enjoyed hosting you. Thank you to all our sponsors for your donations and believing in what FOP Wayne Lodge 14 represents and thank you to all our hard working volunteers. Without you this would not have been possible. We are grateful for being able to pull it all together so everyone could have a great time. Congratulations to Wayne Lodge 14’s own Mitch McKinney who was elected State VP. Bravo sir, now go do great things. As always we are

When an officer asks what the Fraternal Order of Police does for them, my response as president is that we accomplish a great deal. While we cannot perform miracles, we do stand united in our commitment to the safety of all officers and the communities they serve across Indiana and the nation. As a membership, we may not always see eye-to-eye on every issue, but our dedication to the core principles of our organization will never cease. We will continue to vocalize our commitment to safety and fairness for our brothers and sisters and our communities loudly and resolutely. Gratitude to Rick Snyder and FOP Lodge #86 for their tireless efforts in combating the injustices that have plagued their community. It has leeched throughout every corner in this state. A warning Brother Snyder and surrounding Presidents spoke about several years ago. This Marion County revolving door of criminal offenders endangers the lives of innocent citizens and law enforcement officers all across Indiana. It's imperative that the Laissez-Faire attitude of the Marion County prosecutor be brought to task. The unanimous vote of the 14,000 strong Indiana FOP marks the beginning of a concerted effort to demand accountability. We hope you stand with us in this fight for law and order for Indiana.

The unanimous vote against Prosecutor Ryan Mears was made on Friday at the 2026 Indiana FOP State Conference in Fort Wayne.

Hospitality night two after the close of business. FOP Indiana State Conference in full swing at Lodge 14. Pit master Toby hit it out of the park for us. 60 racks, 2 full briskets, #40 pulled pork,burnt ends and all the sides. Plenty of beer and drinks too. No one walked away hungry or thirsty. The heat had nothing on us. We love hospitality at Wayne Lodge 14 and we loved rocking out and serving all you delegates.

Indiana Wayne Lodge 14 is the proud host of this years Indiana State FOP conference. Hospitality evening kicked off at JK’s. Great time as delegates heard into Fort Wayne for the conference. I know, I know, I’m a day behind on pics everyone so cut me some slack. I’m managing a lot right now. 🥴

On Peace Officers Memorial Day, we pause to honor those who answered the call of duty with courage, dignity, and honor.

We remember the brave men and women who stood between danger and their communities, who carried the weight of service not for recognition, but because they believed protecting others mattered.

Today is not only about mourning loss — it is about honoring sacrifice.

We remember the families left behind: the spouses who carry both pride and heartbreak, the children who grow up holding onto memories, and all friend and family forever changed.

To every surviving family member: you are not forgotten, and you will never walk alone. The Fraternal Order of Police stands beside you — not just today, but in every season that follows.

We honor the fallen not only for how they died, but for how they lived:
with integrity,
with compassion,
with courage,
and with a commitment to something greater than themselves.

May we continue to speak their names with honor, carry their memory with dignity, and support the families who continue the journey forward.

Never forgotten.
Forever honored.
