BY BOB MERCER State Capitol Bureau PIERRE — Bill Janklow was the only governor in the history of South Dakota to serve more than two terms — 16 years in fact — over two eras. He also was the only one known to have refused to have his likeness in the state Capitol’s display of portraits of former governors. That changed Friday. During a cere- mony in the rotunda his three children and his wife unveiled two portraits, one showing Janklow from his two terms in 1979-1986 and the other from his two terms in 1995-2002. Mary Dean Janklow told the audience of more than 200 people that her husband would have been uncomfortable to be so honored. She said he always was trying to recognize others for their accomplish- ments and generosity. “He loved South Dakota. He loved the people here. He loved to be able to solve problems and help people,” she said. “I’m proud of his legacy,” she contin- ued. “I’m proud his portraits will hang here.” Bill Janklow died Jan. 12, 2012, from brain cancer at age 72. For decades he had threatened to go to court to stop anyone who tried to add his portrait to those of the now-29 other governors since statehood. But in the months after his death, friends and for- mer Cabinet members began collaborat- ing with his family to have a portrait made. Russell Janklow called the portraits by Watertown artist Josh Spies “unique” and said his father worked 20 years in the Capitol as attorney general for one term (1974-1978) and then as governor twice. “He’d rather be governor for life if had the chance,” Russell said. “When it came to honoring himself, he was shy and bash- ful about that.” Spies, whose wildlife paintings were admired by Janklow, called the day “amazing.” Spies and Janklow knew each other as friends a generation apart in age. “It’s a big deal to me, and I worked re- ally hard on this,” Spies said. In the front row for the ceremony was Bill Janklow’s mother, LouElla, now age 99. All three of the Janklow children — Russell, Pam and Shonna — were on hand along with other family members. The crowd was filled with old friends, political allies, Janklow cabinet members and aides, as well as people who simply knew him through their everyday lives. Former Gov. Mike Rounds came, but for- mer Gov. Walter Dale Miller wasn’t feeling well enough to attend. Pam Roberts, one of his most trusted top aides, delivered the welcome. Then Gov. Dennis Daugaard spoke about some of the things he learned from Janklow. “Gov. Janklow did take charge in situa- tions where someone needed to take charge,” Daugaard said. “He gave us confi- dence, especially during disasters.” Daugaard said he admired Janklow for his “aggressiveness in getting facts before a decision.” Daugaard said he learned Jan- klow dug into the details of every piece of legislation that went to his desk — includ- ing a bill that Daugaard had passed while a state senator and that Janklow vetoed. “He really knew that bill,” Daugaard said. When the veto override came up in the Senate, “I voted with him against my bill.” Daugaard said he tries to be like Jan- klow in that way. “We’re better public servants because of Bill Janklow,” he said. Lois Johnson Lois M. Johnson, 86, of Yankton, SD formerly of Ver- million, SD, passed away Thursday, November 14 at the Avera Sister James Care Center in Yankton.

(AP) — A trial date has been set for a lawsuit against Lancaster County filed by the father of a teenage inmate who killed himself. The Lincoln Journal Star reports U.S. District Judge John Gerrard scheduled a jury trial for Sept. 15. Mark Kennedy, of Lincoln, filed the lawsuit after his 16-year-old son, Jonathan Kennedy, hanged himself in a youth detention center on Feb. 26. He was taken to a local hospital, where he later died. The lawsuit argues that jail staff should have realized Jonathan Kennedy had mental problems and should have more effectively supervised him. The suit seeks $5,000 in damages for funeral expenses and other unspecified damages. A judge had ordered the boy detained for suspected drug use and self-harming behavior. Report: Neb. should pay Kan. $5.5M OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — A special water master has found that Nebraska took more than its share of water from the Republican River in 2005 and 2006 and should pay Kansas $5.5 million for the breach. But the recommendation submitted Friday to the U.S. Supreme Court rejected Kansas’ demands for $80 million and an order that would permanently shut off irrigation in more than 300,000 Nebraska acres. The U.S. Supreme Court gave Kansas permission in 2011 to file a new petition over allegations that Nebraska used 25.7 billion gallons more in water that it should have in 2005 and 2006. Use of the river’s water is governed by a 1943 compact between Colorado, Kansas and Nebraska. Colorado was given 11 percent of the water, while Nebraska was allotted 49 percent and Kansas 40 percent. Former Det. Gets 3 Years Of Probation OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — A judge has sentenced a former Omaha police detective to three years of probation after he admitted selling information from a criminal justice database. The Omaha World-Herald reports U.S. District Judge Joseph Bataillon sentenced Kevin L. Cave on Friday to probation and fined him $8,000. The 37-year-old Cave, of Bellevue, pleaded guilty in Au- gust to selling information from the Nebraska Criminal Justice Information System database to auto dealerships that wanted to find and repossess vehicles. Cave pleaded guilty to one count of exceeding author- ized access to a protected computer for private financial gain. Prosecutors say he sold the information about 60 times between March 2010 and August 2012 and was paid $200 for each lead resulting in a repossession. Cave worked at Omaha police from 2002 until Septem- ber 2012.

(AP) — In separate opinions Friday, the Nebraska Supreme Court de- nied new trials for two men convicted in the 2008 shooting death of another man outside an Omaha American Legion hall. Darrin Smith, 28, and Je- remy Foster, 26, filed separate appeals seeking to have their convictions of first-degree murder, assault and weapons counts reversed and to have new, separate trials. In 2009, the two were convicted in Douglas County District Court a single trial for the November 2008 shooting death of 25-year-old Victor Henderson, who died from a single gunshot to his neck that he received in a hail of bullets. Henderson’s brother and three others were injured. Police say the shooting was gang-related, and that Foster shot Henderson and his brother because Smith told him to, while the three other victims were bystanders. Au- thorities say Henderson and his brother were targeted be- cause they had testified in fed- eral court against members of Smith’s gang.
