S.D. Attorney General Jason Ravnsborg hopes to save his career by attacking the man he ran down and killed


So now we know how South Dakota Attorney General Jason Ravnsborg hopes to win his case: He will blame Joe Boever.

In a court filing Friday, Rapid City lawyer Timothy J. Rensch asked retired Sixth Circuit Judge John L. Brown, who is presiding over the case, to order the release of psychiatric or psychological records “for exculpatory information concerning his suicidal ideation.”

Ravnsborg (seen above in an image from an ABC News story on the crash) wants to see records from Avera St. Luke’s Hospital in Aberdeen, S.D., Avera St. Mary’s Hospital in Pierre, the Avera Medical Group Pierre, and Aberdeen Psychiatric — all of whom filed claims against Boever’s estate — as well as the South Dakota Human Services Center in Yankton. Boever had been committed to the Yankton facility, the defense claims.

Boever had struggled in life, his cousins Nick and Victor Nemec told me when I met them at the crash site a few days after the Sept. 12 fatal crash. He had returned to Highmore in an effort to find his footing, and had worked a variety of jobs, including for Victor on his farm.
