Justice In Action

Episode 19 - Jessica Rehfeld: A Decade to Justice – Part 3

Pennington County State’s Attorney’s Office Episode 19

In the final episode, we examine the prosecution,  a process that stretched nearly a decade and tested everyone involved. From death penalty decisions and plea negotiations to delayed trials, appeals, and final sentencing, this episode lays out the legal journey that followed. We also reflect on the role of victim advocacy, the impact on Jessica’s family, and what justice, imperfect and hard-won, ultimately looked like in this case.
