John Doe investigations
Two John Doe investigations, beginning in 2010 and ending in 2015, were launched by Milwaukee County District Attorney John Chisholm (D) into the activities of staff and associates of Gov. Scott Walker (R).[3] Along with Dan Bice, Bill Glauber and Jason Stein at the Journal Sentinel, Marley was one of the chief reporters on the John Doe investigations related to Scott Walker from 2010 to 2015.

Publications
More Than They Bargained For, Marley's account (with Jason Stein) of the battles over Wisconsin's Act 10 was praised by reviewer John Nichols as "a fact-based, relatively unbiased account of a fight in which most of the players have decided that they can have their own opinions AND their own facts."[5] Kirkus Reviews called the book "an impressively objective account of the struggle."[6]
