Early life
Marshall was born December 14, 1937 in Quincy, Massachusetts. He attended Quincy public schools and Suffolk University.
Early career
From 1965 to 1969, Marshall was a member of the Quincy City Council. He then represented the 2nd Norfolk District in the Massachusetts House of Representatives from 1969 to 1975.
Sheriff
Marshall served as Sheriff of Norfolk County, Massachusetts from 1975 until his death in 1996. During his tenure as sheriff, Marshall was known as an innovator. He started community service and work release programs and in 1985 he opened the Braintree Alternative Center for nonviolent criminals who were part of these programs. He also started an electronic house arrest program to alleviate jail overcrowding and Norfolk County's first sexual assault unit. He also oversaw construction of the new Norfolk County sheriff's office and correctional center in Dedham, which replaced the Dedham County Jail built 175 years earlier.
In 1991, Marshall was fined $10,900 by the Massachusetts Ethics Commission for charging personal expenses to an American Express card issued by the Norfolk County deputy sheriff's office and appointing two of his sons as deputy sheriffs. In 1995, the commission found that he had illegally used his power to appoint deputy sheriffs to raise funds. The committee chose not to issue a fine in this case.
Marshall died on August 28, 1996 at his home in Quincy of complications from cancer.
