Attorney General Marty Jackley is praising President Trump’s nomination of Division of Criminal Investigation Director Dan Satterlee as South Dakota’s next U.S. Marshal.
“Dan is a strong law enforcement officer, and he was my choice as DCI director when I became Attorney General in 2023,” said Jackley. “He has been an excellent leader for DCI, and he will do the same as U.S. Marshal. I look forward to continuing our working relationship in his new position.”
Jackley recommended Director Satterlee for the position and was supported by South Dakota Senators Thune and Rounds. President Trump then accepted that nomination.
“President Trump, Senate Leader Thune, and Senator Rounds are strong advocates of law enforcement and public safety, and this nomination reaffirms that,” said Jackley.
Director Satterlee’s nomination has been referred to the Senate Judiciary Committee for consideration. If approved there, the nomination would go to the full Senate.
