RAPID CITY -- Today, the jury selection process wrapped up for the trial of Tuchone native, John Graham. In court, Graham appeared calm, alert and in good spirits.
Contrary to some news articles, the final decision has not yet been made as to whether or not former AIM member Richard Marshall will be required to testify during the trial of John Graham.
Richard Marshall had been charged with providing the gun which killed Anna Mae Aquash. He was acquitted in a jury trial earlier this year. Marshall has said he would exercise his Fifth Amendment right not to testify.
The hearing regarding Marshall's testimony is scheduled for 8:30am tomorrow. Judge Jack Delaney said in court today he would make the ruling then. Opening statements are to begin at 9:30am. The first witness is expected to testify during the afternoon session.
