Advisory group suggests adding member of the public to South Dakota Open Meetings Commission (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A member of the public could have a vote on South Dakota’s Open Meetings Commission if the state’s incoming attorney general, legislators and governor back a proposal recommended Thursday by an open meetings task force. The commission is a five-member board established in 2004 to hear complaints about alleged violations of open meetings laws and issue censures to public bodies that have broken them. Per state law, its five members have always been state’s attorneys or deputy state’s attorneys, a
Budget outline offers glimpse into potential price of adding trial work for state public defender (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It could cost up to $697,000 a year for South Dakota’s state-level public defender to begin taking on trial-level cases in the state, an advisory committee heard on Wednesday.

The 57-year-old who applied for the pardon hasn’t been charged with a crime since he was convicted of sexual contact with a minor. He wants to have the 2001 offense cleared from his record, he said in his application, because he felt his actions sin
Fewer South Dakota middle-schoolers trying nicotine, but more using it regularly (opens the original)
Read excerpt
(SOUTH DAKOTA SEARCHLIGHT) - Fewer South Dakota middle-schoolers are trying nicotine than they were two years ago, but slightly more of them are using it every day. Nicotine use rates for Native American kids in grades six through eight are higher than they are for non-Natives, meanwhile, and South Dakota kids overall are slightly more likely on average than their peers elsewhere in the U.S. to use cigarettes. The findings from 2025 come from the recently released Youth Tobacco Survey from the S
