Marty Jackley, South Dakota attorney general
It's been more than 30 years since American Indian Movement activist
Annie Mae Aquash was killed on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, but 2010
could be the year that her family finally gets their day in court.
"We are really at a point where I think there's an end in sight," said
Attorney General Marty Jackley, who planned to spend his Christmas vacation
preparing for the March murder trials of John Graham and Thelma Rios.
Jackley served as U.S. Attorney before last August, when Gov. Mike Rounds
appointed him Attorney General. As U.S. Attorney, Jackley and Assistant U.S.
Attorney Robert Mandel were prepared to try Graham and a co-defendant,
Richard Marshall, in federal court on similar charges. That case was delayed
while officials debated whether the federal court had jurisdiction over
Graham, who is a Canadian tribal member.
Graham and Marshall are now scheduled for trial Feb. 16 in federal court.
Meanwhile, after Jackley's transition to the state office, Graham and Rios
were indicted on state charges related to Aquash's death, though Graham has
yet to be formally arraigned.
"The state of South Dakota anticipates to be ready for trial on March 1 with
respect to both defendants," Jackley said, although that could change if
Graham is not available for trial.
Jackley said his goal hasn't changed from the day he walked into the U.S.
Attorney's Office.
"That is just to simply see justice done for the victim's family, which is a
jury trial to answer the question as to who is responsible for what happened
to Annie Mae Aquash," he said. "The travesty is this young mother of two is
kidnapped, raped and executed. And that gets sometimes lost in the whole
process. It hits home when you talk to her daughters and you talk to the
victim's family."
Jackley, a Sturgis native, earned an electrical engineering degree in 1992
and his law degree in 1995. He served as a federal law clerk, was a partner
in a Rapid City law firm and served as a special assistant state attorney
general from 2001 to 2005 before being named U.S. Attorney in 2006.

Jackley announces he will run for Attorney General
PIERRE -- Marty Jackley, who was recently appointed South Dakota attorney
general to fill a vacancy, took the first formal step Wednesday to seek his
own four-year term in the office in next year's election.
Jackley filed a document with the secretary of state's office to give
official notice that he has formed a campaign committee.
Gov. Mike Rounds appointed Jackley, 39, to the office effective Sept. 4
after Attorney General Larry Long was named a circuit judge. The appointment
means Jackley will serve the remainder of Long's term, which runs until the
end of next year.
Jackley, who had been U.S. attorney for South Dakota since 2006, said he
wants to seek his own four-year term as attorney general in the 2010
election because he enjoys the office's responsibility for representing the
state in lawsuits, working with the Legislature, and prosecuting those
accused of crimes.
He said he wants to make sure the attorney general's office has a team of
lawyers who are firm, fair and skilled to represent the public's interests.
"My goal is to continue to keep my nose to the ground and do a strong job as
attorney general and at election time emphasize experience both in the
private sector and as U.S. attorney and my litigation experience," Jackley
said.
No other Republicans or Democrats have publicly indicated an intent to run
for attorney general next year.
South Dakota Democratic Party officials did not immediately return a call
Wednesday seeking comment on potential Democratic candidates for attorney
general.

Jackley sworn in as state's Attorney General
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) - Marty Jackley, who has served as U.S. attorney
for South Dakota since 2006, was sworn in Friday as the state's 30th
attorney general.
Gov. Mike Rounds appointed Jackley, 38, to the constitutional office on Aug.
19 after Attorney General Larry Long was named a circuit court judge.
Rounds said Jackley treats everyone as a friend, inside and outside the
courtroom.
"Marty is also someone who understands that the manner in which you enforce
the law influences people's respect for the law," the governor said Friday.
"Marty will be an outstanding attorney general who will serve the state of
South Dakota well for years to come."
Jackley was sworn in by his father, former Meade County state's attorney
Michael Jackley, during a noon ceremony at the Old Courthouse Museum in
Sioux Falls.
After taking the oath, Jackley thanked the governor for the appointment and
Long for his longtime leadership in the position.
Jackley committed to work hard so that lawyers who appear in front of judges
and legislators "say those words 'I'm here on behalf of the state of South
Dakota' with enthusiasm and that same level of integrity, preparedness and
skilled advocacy."
Former President George W. Bush had appointed Jackley as U.S. attorney for
South Dakota.
The Sturgis native received a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering
from the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology and graduated from the
University of South Dakota Law School in 1995. He was a law clerk for a
federal judge until 1997, a partner in a Rapid City law firm and worked as a
special assistant state attorney general in 2001-2005.
President Barack Obama has nominated Brendan Johnson, son of U.S. Sen. Tim
Johnson, to be the next U.S. attorney in South Dakota.
Gov. Rounds appointed Long, a Republican, to serve as a judge in Sioux Falls
in the 2nd Judicial Circuit, which includes Minnehaha and Lincoln counties.
He was scheduled to be sworn in to his new post on Friday afternoon.
Long was elected attorney general in 2002 and was re-elected in 2006. Before
that, he was chief deputy to former Attorney General Mark Barnett, who also
was appointed to a judgeship in 2007.
After the ceremony, Long joked that Jackley will likely receive some kind of
a strange phone call in the next 24 hours, "and now it's his problem."
