ABOUT ME

I am Renae Randall. I worked for the South Dakota Investment Council (SDIC) for 22 yrs and was fired as a Senior Investment Manager on May 30, 2025 for Whistleblowing about a collapse of Internal Controls at the $20 billion public investment fund that holds custody of all of the State of South Dakota’s financial assets. This includes the South Dakota Retirement System (SDRS) assets, several state trust funds and the state checking account (Cash Flow fund).

I was then blocked by several state agencies from reporting it as I was legally required. I had two different lawyers that told me they would help me file that Whistleblower report to the AG Office and file a lawsuit for Wrongful Termination, but both would eventually refuse after a few weeks and demand I sign an NDA and settle behind the scenes instead, which I never wanted to do.

When I continued to refuse a secret settlement, I was brutally cyberattacked. The hacker hijacked my computer, phone and several emails/social media accounts and terrorized me. Calls wouldn’t connect, emails wouldn’t deliver. I couldn’t communicate with anyone that could help me. I would eventually buy billboards to communicate with the outside world (Ft. Pierre, Sioux Falls, Rapid City). But even then, complete silence from anyone in the South Dakota government. None of the people that should be responsible and held accountable did anything. Everyone looked the other way.
