Bill Offers Young Adult Lifers Chance At Parole


SD Legislative Resource Council
The South Dakota Legislature is considering applying the death penalty only when public safety officials are murder victims.
A State Senator and retired judge says the death penalty does not deter criminals from committing murder. And he says capital punishment serves only as revenge in a violent society.
But prosecutors testify that victims deserve justice.
Senate Bill 98 now goes to the full Senate for floor discussion and, if it passes there, moves to the House.

State Senator Seeks To Restrict Death Penalty


Jackie Hendry
After a nearly six-hour delay, Rodney Berget was executed Monday for his role in the 2011 murder of correction officer Ron “RJ” Johnson at the state penitentiary. A motion to stay the execution reached the United States Supreme Court, which ultimately ruled in favor of the preceding litigation and the South Dakota Supreme Court’s decision.  
As the scheduled execution time neared, about 40 anti-death penalty demonstrators stood in silent prayer for Rodney Berget and others impacted by the case.
