Thanks for this!

This is likely the case. He got as far away from the victim as he felt he could. Ironically this brought him nearer to Boever's disabled truck which he mentioned in his deposition.

Good question; there were witnesses who saw it on and maybe he was covering up. On the other hand, we don't know what condition it was found either. Maybe immaterial. But if illuminating all night, just incredible they pretended not to see it.

Some detective work: how long would the flashlight stay illuminated with good batteries? Was it turned off at the scene of the crime before the sheriff showed up, then turned on again the next morning? But we were all pretty much right about this case early on. Just awful. And yeah, AG...

South Dakotans should demand a full investigation that includes the Sheriff. Indict both for failure to render aid and obstruction of Justice and we'll see what a Grand Jury finds.

I wonder if the specially appointed judge could move for a grand jury or is bound simply to accept the fines and guilty pleas?

Ravnsborg charged with three misdemeanors: South Dakota AG who hit, killed pedestrian with car charged with misdemeanors Pretty much a whitewash. The news conference was bad. They couldn't say why he was distracted, but went out of their way to say he was off the phone for a minute before...

The Republican AGs had one more important duty: they sponsored the Cosplay rebellion in D.C. so there are still more people he can harm in his current position. Need to indict this guy.

Kristi Noem is very concerned. Kind of like Susan Collins. Gov. Kristi Noem frustrated with lack of movement in Ravnsborg case Sure looks like corrupt pressure inside the AG's office. The indictment or investigation should have gone elsewhere. The asst. AG seems to be sitting on...

Still wondering where the indictment is.. . .

Well, since the passenger airbag fired, some of us thought he was distracted by what was happening in the front seat. They. I meant they were distracted.

Chilling seeing the Argus Leader photo of him after his victory--wearing a defaced American flag Blue Live Matter tie. Here we see the result--a suggestion of two tiers of justice. He should have been indicted immediately, but can finally cast his electoral vote Monday. The governor has...

I wonder what South Dakota thinks is a speedy and fair trial? The anniversary of the hit and run? There should have been closure on this simple case weeks ago. Ravnsborg's accountability has been deferred unlike it would be for anyone else and they should be ashamed. By now.

Hit and run. I would also like to know if they searched for evidence the body had been moved or tampered with. Inexcusable behavior by an AG,

It is interesting that the nature of the distraction was withheld. Must be some conflict between withness interviews and evidence. For example, he could say he drifted off to sleep and the evidence suggests he was on the phone or had another undisclosed person in the car. when he panicked and...

Hate to see just a slap on the wrist for manslaughter, but they waited until other news was hitting hard, didn't they? As a minimum this guy should be impeached.

That was a nice catch.

Actually this is a theory that can be explored--there is a "black box" diagnostic for that year of Ford Taurus that should have some recoverable telemetry for investigators, passenger seat data, time of collision, speed, etc.. There is also likely a seat weight sensor if someone were in the...

Appreciate the article, JerseyGirl. I am not sure why they would wait till after the election, but that stinks. This investigation appears to be over; thus it looks pretty ominous for the AG--either a terrible whitewash that won't play well or the expected criminal negligence.

The call is pretty terrible for Ravnsborg IMO. And the governor said if he wants to resign, that is "his prerogative." Yow. Politically he is a spent force. I am reading between the lines and think this mini briefing is subtle pressure for him to go. He knew he didn't hit a deer--he...
