Marty Jackley: “If someone wants to participate in this, then there needs to be protections there.”

But if you’re doing that, you need to safeguard our privacy, we take that very seriously in South Dakota.

By confirming that immunity challenges can only be raised before trial, the court has given prosecutors, defense counsel, and circuit courts a clear procedural framework moving forward.

Let’s put in the safeguards, put it in the law so that everybody knows what those safeguards are.

I think this is, because of really what’s happened nationally, something that I think deserves legislative attention and proper legislation that allows law enforcement to use vital tools and has safeguards for private, individual privacy.
