South Dakota task force considers new prison sites as Sioux Falls facility is deemed outdated.

South Dakota's Project Prison Reset Task Force is evaluating potential new prison sites, including Mitchell and locations outside Sioux Falls, due to concerns over the outdated Sioux Falls penitentiary. The task force is considering size, workforce, and utility access. They will not eliminate any sites until their next meeting in Pierre. The decision to replace the current prison was unanimous, but the new location is still under discussion.
