There is currently no evidence or eyewitness accounts that he so much as drank at the event he was driving home from, let alone that he was "blitzed out of his mind." There is evidence that he was using his phone.
If escaping ASAP means calling and waiting for your local friendly sheriff. I hope the investigators grilled that sheriff damned hard.
At 70mph, 200ft skidmarks represent about 2 seconds and add in reaction time, yeah, he definitely saw something.
oh my god, I really thought these people were peddling these lies and BS to manipulate their base and there was no way they themselves believed them. This guy should be nowhere near public office.
Ok. Look obviously what this man is a murderer.
But am I the only one who thinks it's INSANE that these videos are allowed to be released before a trial has happened?!
In what other country in the world would they do this?
How can a fair trial possibly happen with all this stuff over social media etc?
Oh, he was definitely on his phone at the time of the crash.keloland.com said:

This would be all fine and reasonable if there was actually going to be any trial (Even clearly guilty people like him deserve a fair trial after all) and there would be any semblance of having him face justice, but since that's clearly doesn't look like that's going to happen, it just boils down to "Stop making this murderer look like a murderer".
Truly the American way.

Oh yeah. Removing things from the internet always works out.
If r/IdiotsInCars is anything to go by, there are people in urban areas that routinely browse the net on their phones while driving.

"Oh no, there's evidence he committed an impeachable offense, better shut down the impeachment process!"
Fucking disgusting.
Fucking disgusting.
there are people everywhere browsing the internet while driving.
Handling this case with the softest of kids' gloves. A $500 fine and 30 days in jail for hit and run negligent homicide? Stay classy Dakota.
What an absolute joke. It would honestly be less offensive if he wasn't charged. Can't wait for "justice" to be served when he pays his $1000 fine for killing a man.
If I was a defense attorney, I would document all of these cases and just use them for precedent.
"Oh, you want to charge my client for this? "
"Here's precedent that it's okay. Case dismissed"
Like, he has to get something like gross negligent man slaughter. The evidence is there.

This reminds me of a case where I live. Pretty sure it was a doctor who hit and killed a girl skateboarding in his Mercedes. His defense attorney argued that the engineering was so good that he didn't hear her get hit. She was thrown 30 feet from the impact. He got off.

This case and result infuriates me. "My car is so nice I didn't notice I hit a kid."
Saw an update that the AG in question in this case that killed the guy with his car is an army reservist and they just promoted him to Colonel, AFTER the fact he did this crime.
Yeah, the guy who ran into me at highway speed while I was waiting for a red light at the top of an offramp abandoned his truck and ran off into the brush. He eventually turned himself in, but long after he would have sobered up.
So this jagoff's new story is that when struck and killed a guy with his car, he was actually doing him a favor:
Trial starts August 26th, dude is looking at a maximum of 90 days in jail.

Without an 'in-between' law in South Dakota, state's AG faces small penalty in deadly crash
One month ago, county prosecutors charging South Dakota Attorney General Jason Ravnsborg noted the state lacked a "negligent homicide" statute that might've been brought against the AG for his fatal pedestrian-car crash. As the case proceeds, a look at laws across the region finds South Dakota sets…

How could the guy he hit want to die when originally they said the AG didn't know he hit anyone at all?
This is literally the rich eating the poor.
Holy fucking shit 90 days for goddamn manslaughter, possibly first degree homicide by his own admission? Fucked isn't a strong enough word.
I mean, white people call 911 for basically everything.
McDonalds forgot a nugget? 911
Someone forgot to say merry christmas? 911

Is there no obstruction of justice charge they can hit him with? He clearly lied through his teeth the entire way through the police investigation as Foffy sort of breaks down

good lord... how does this shit happen? Like, I'm aware of society's overall more favorable treatment to rich white guys, but still... is this simply the result of what a good lawyer can get you? I mean, the law's still the law, and I cannot imagine any prosecuting attorney phoning in a case like this o_0
(fwiw, I did just read about South Dakota's lack of "negligent homicide" statutes, but I refuse to believe this AG case is some never-seen-before incident in the state's history... like, are there just a bunch of people in S. Dakota who've been directly responsible for a another person's death... just out and about, living their lives w/ only a slap on the wrist for their actions? surely, at some point in time, state lawmakers toyed w/ the idea of "punishment should fit the crime" or something, right?)
