dants in weighing evidence and ar- guments and in rendering verdicts, Balvin said. “These are two separate cases on trial at the same time,” she said. The defendants are repre- sented by court-appointed attor- neys, according to the clerk’s office. Yankton attorney Creighton Thurman represents Kimberly Johnson, while Menno attorney Ken Bertsch represents Charles Johnson. The prosecution is represented by Deputy Attorney General Katie Mallery and Bon Homme County state’s attorney Lisa Rothschadl. The trial has been postponed for nearly a year. The Johnsons were scheduled to stand trial last August in Tyn- dall, but the judge granted a de- fense motion for a continuance. In addition, Charles Johnson made a motion to allow the hiring of an ex- pert witness, according to court papers. The trial was rescheduled to last January, then further delayed to April and May before finally be- ginning this week. The state Division of Criminal Investigation (DCI) and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) handled the case. Warrants were issued for the Johnsons, and they were arrested in April 2012 by the Knox County, Neb., sheriff’s office. The Johnsons each posted $5,000 cash bond and were released. The Johnsons waived extradition at a Knox County hearing and were trans- ferred to South Dakota for further court proceedings. Both defendants remain free on bond during the trial, Balvin said.

SHERIFF’S OFFICE BY RANDY DOCKENDORF [email protected] Tuesday marked election day in three area South Dakota school dis- tricts, with voters deciding races for Viborg-Hurley, Irene-Wakonda and Wagner school districts. The follow are the election re- sults, with each district picking up a new board member. • IRENE-WAKONDA: Russell Buchanan won the seat for a three- year term from Representation Area 5, finishing first in the three- person field with 70 votes. The other candidates, Jerald Hinseth and Kris Sees, finished with a re- spective 47 and 37 votes. A new board member was guar- anteed, as incumbent George Sees did not run again after serving 19 years, according to school busi- ness manager Pam Rudd. In the other race, Mike Logue ran unopposed for the seat from Representative Area 1. • VIBORG-HURLEY: As it begins its second year of existence, the Vi- borg-Hurley school district will re- ceive a new school board member. In Tuesday’s election, chal- lenger Charles E. Kludt defeated in- cumbent Gene Larsen 113-71 for a three-year term as an at-large board member. The race was the only school board contest this year. Larsen had been elected to a one-year term when the Viborg and Hurley school districts consoli- dated last year, according to Vi- borg-Hurley school business manager Wanda Kost. As part of the merger plan, the terms of the five Viborg-Hurley school board members were stag- gered. Larsen won the one-year term for the at-large board mem- ber, who can come from anywhere in the district. The seat now be- comes a three-year term. The Viborg-Hurley school dis- trict is divided into two areas of representation. The board consists of two seats from the North Area, two seats from the South Area, and one at-large seat. All Viborg-Hurley patrons can vote for the at-large seat. When it comes to the North Area and South Area seats, voters can only cast ballots for candidates from the area where they reside. Steve Rabern and Jim Gerdes are serving respective two- and three-year terms from the North Area, while Denise Miller and Peggy Mach are serving respective two- and three-year terms from the South Area. • WAGNER: Newcomer Mike Brunsing and incumbents Greg Krcil and Chad Kreeger claimed the three three-year seats on the Wag- ner school board. They are filling at-large positions. Brunsing topped the field with 283 votes, followed by Krcil with 276 and Kreeger with 212. The rest of the field saw George Langdeaux finish with 141 votes and Jill Denker-Lindstrom with 55. A new face was guaranteed on the board, as incumbent Mike Denker chose not to run for re-election. Tuesday’s election drew 8.4 per- cent voter turnout with 325 ballots cast, according to school business manager Lory DuFrain.
