OMAHA, Neb. (KMTV) — After asking to be executed just last month, Nikko Jenkins now said he doesn't. Jenkins was in court, Thursday where he was expected to tell the judge he wants to end his post-conviction appeals, but he showed up over video and changed his mind. Jenkins appeared emotionless and often closed his eyes during Thursday's hearing. His attorneys tell KMTV they don't know why Jenkins changed his mind.

OMAHA, Neb. (KMTV) — The Nebraska State Patrol released a new report on speeding. It shows that over 300 drivers have been pulled over this year for going over 100 miles per hour. Driver Gary Love said these days he's shocked to see how many people drive over 100 miles per hour. "I'm concerned with my safety, but I wish the people driving around me were just as concerned also. If you're going 100 miles per hour, you're not concerned about safety," said Love.
