Backstory: Prior to being demoted to sheriff as a detective, Jake Marshall acted as a mentor to Dick Gumshoe when he started out in the force, giving him a small cactus that he claimed would "listen to all [his] troubles." Jake used to guard the security room in the police department. Jake had a laid-back attitude to his duties as a guard. He was supposed to go inside the evidence room to check it three times a day, but stated that it was "not his style" and actually only visited the room once a month to "pay [his] respects."

Jake eventually with the help of Phoenix Wright during the Lana Skye case, was able to rest easy knowing that the SL-9 case had been laid to rest after it was revealed the former chief of police Damon Gant killed his younger brother after Neil Marshall was found unconscious after a confrontation with serial killer Joe Darke who confessed to his murders yet there was not enough evidence to put him way hence Gant took that opportunity to frame Darke and get him put away.
