AG impeachment committee stalls seeking legal counsel

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) — The work of a South Dakota House committee considering impeachment of the state’s attorney general has stalled since the committee was created last month.

The Republican-dominated House voted last month to have a committee prepare a report and recommend whether Attorney General Jason Ravnsborg should be impeached for his conduct surrounding a fatal car crash.

The committee has met just once and has not scheduled any further meetings.

House Speaker Spencer Gosch said the committee is finding legal counsel for the investigation and partially blamed the delay on a separate legal battle over records, KSFY-TV reported.
