South Dakota Attorney General Jason Ravnsborg was finally removed from office for the fatal 2020 hit-and-run crash that he blamed on a nonexistent “deer.”
The state Senate convicted the top law enforcement official after an impeachment trial over the crash that sounded like a scene straight out of the classic dark comedy movie “Fargo.”
Sen. Lee Schoenbeck, the leader of the Republican-dominated chamber, said Ravnsborg brazenly lied about thinking he hit a deer, not a person.
