DECEMBER 22, 2023:
South Dakota Attorney General Marty Jackley says a reward of up to $25,000 is being offered to anyone who provides information that leads to the successful arrest and conviction of those involved in the disappearance of Rachel Cyriacks.
Jackley says there are people who know what happened to Cyriacks 10 years ago. He says they’re hoping offering this reward will be an incentive for those people to finally step forward.
Money for the reward is coming from the U.S. Department of Justice’s Equitable Sharing Program which provides funds for such rewards. The reward will be granted upon the successful arrest and conviction of those people involved in Cyriacks’ disappearance.
Cyriacks was last known to be traveling Nov. 13, 2013, to Huron from Woonsocket. She has not been seen since then. Her disappearance is believed to have been involuntary.
Jackley says in the last month, DCI agents have conducted several interviews with potential witnesses, and searches have been conducted at locations throughout South Dakota. He says those efforts will continue.
People with information on her disappearance can contact the South Dakota Division of Criminal Investigation at 605-773-3331.

South Dakota Attorney General Marty Jackley is remembering Rachel Cyriacks on the 10th anniversary of her disappearance and is again asking for the public’s help in locating the Woonsocket woman.
“Ten years is too long for Rachel’s family to wonder what happened to her,” said Attorney General Jackley. “It is time to bring her home, and we ask anyone who has any information to come forward now.”
Cyriacks disappeared on Nov. 13, 2013, and was last known to be traveling to Huron. Her husband, Brad, told investigators that she picked him up in the Huron area. Rachel has not been heard from again. The investigation thus far indicates that her husband, Brad, was the last person to see Rachel.
In December of 2013, the family gray and black 1995 Silverado pickup truck was found on a bee farm near Huron. Rachel’s green, pink and white quilt, which was located in her home, also vanished at the time of her disappearance, according to authorities.
