South Dakota's embattled attorney general Jason Ravnsborg admits to reading Joe Biden conspiracy theories on his phone moments before fatally striking a pedestrian with his car.
Detectives examined Ravnsborg's phone records and found that he logged into his Yahoo! email account at 10:20 p.m. on Sept. 12, and moments later was viewing an article on the Dakota Free Press website.
A minute later Ravnsborg went to the Real Clear Politics website, and a minute after that -- moments before he struck and killed 55-year-old Joe Boever -- he was viewing an article about Biden on disgraced reporter John Solomon's Just The News website. ..........(more)

(6,477 posts)Thoughts with the man who was killed by this reckless imbecile. He's only been charged with misdemeanors somehow, but I'd like to see him get at least the year in county over this, and he can think about his obsession with right wing nonsense as he's shuffling in his jail slippers for watered-down orange juice.
What a piece of shit.

I wish cars could all have some kind of technology installed so that no one inside could access their cell phone while it is in motion. Yeah, yeah, I know. Dissenters will say, "What about the passengers?" Makes you wonder how any of us managed before we all had cell phones. We'd actually have to stop somewhere and find a pay phone, or got home to use our regular home phone.

or disable it unless the seatbelt is on. or test your alcohol level.
this is personal responsibility and he is personally responsible. and a liar and coward to boot.
