Just a quick note that Farrah's Arraignment hearing is today. At this hearing, Farrah's charges will be officially read and formally recorded. As stated before, there is a chance that she may or may not be charged with an additional felony for an issues with registry administration. If felony is not pressed, then she will still face charges for alleged probation violation.
Please be aware that SSG is not immediately privileged to receive information related to hearings. We can only report on the outcome once the information has been released. Stay tuned for an update within 48 hours.

"Veil of Deception" by N. Clarke
We all live beneath a massive veil of deception that has been put on us since the moment we became self aware. Either by blissful ignorance or by choice, we live under the assumption that the world around us is a good place, and that all the problems and evil that permeates human society is far, far away and that there are systems in place to protect us. We are told that police are always there to help us, and that the justice system is there to make sure that the bad guys are punished and the good guys always win. We are meant to believe that every time a person is convicted of a crime, that person is guilty no matter what. How could they not be? They were convicted after all.
This is not always the case, though. Nothing is ever perfect, and the American justice system is no exception to that rule. Sometimes, mistakes are made. Sometimes, bad people are put in charge of cases. Sometimes, innocent people get hurt. It is times like these that the true darkness of society rears its ugly head and most of us are content to just look away and ignore it, lest we see beyond the veil and are forced to accept that the evil in the world is much closer to us than we care to admit. We would much rather just go along with the mistakes and treat the person as guilty simply because we are told it is so. We don’t know the person’s story, we don’t know the context of what happened, we can’t even say for 100% certain that they are actually guilty, we just assume they are because that’s what the justice system said.

We’d rather sit back and believe that everybody convicted of a crime is guilty, and that false convictions are rare and would never EVER happen to anybody we care about. We’d rather hide behind the veil of ignorance and believe that we are safe. But that can’t happen. Not anymore. Too many innocent people suffer under the boot of a justice system that has long since become a greed-fueled entity that exists not to serve justice, but to serve the interests of the parties overseeing cases. Police departments get to look like they’re doing a good job. Judges get to look like they’re being tough on crime. Attorneys get paid huge sums by feeding off the desperate. Private jails get more and more money the more inmates they house. The state gets a constant stream of money from probationers paying huge fees that they have to skip meals just to afford or risk going to prison. And this all is allowed to happen because the public would rather think that the system is benevolent and always does good than admit that the system put in place to protect them is broken.
That is exactly why it is time for people to stand up and demand change. Demand justice reform. What will it take for people to see beyond the veil? Will it take their loved one getting accused of a crime they didn’t commit and driven into crippling debt to prove their innocence? Will it take somebody’s son getting accused of a heinous sex crime that he couldn’t have possibly committed but found guilty anyway because of courtroom bias? Will it take somebody’s mother committing suicide because her reputation was destroyed by a false accusation and her family came under constant scrutiny?

An Inauguration Day Message from SoS
Today is a day of uncertainty, doubt, and insecurity in the United States. Many of us fear what may be in store for the future and we have little way to know what will come.
In these times, the best we can do is pray that the powers that be will do what's right to help those who need it most. We should not assume the worst but we should plan for the occasion.
In these times, the best we can do is pray that the powers that be will do what's right to help those who need it most. We should not assume the worst but we should plan for the occasion.
For in the event that they fail in their responsibility to guide and help the people, we will have to look to each other for support. In this, however, we are more than capable.
This has been shown repeatedly in the last few months as organizations committed to forego profit to provide free and accessible service to those most in need, celebrities used the height of their fame to shine light on the little person, religions embraced those that would normally be shunned, and funds were raised by countless groups to ensure that even the hopeless would have a chance.
We are a strong people capable of making America great again in selfless ways. By banding together with an open heart and mind, we will secure our freedoms. Despite our differences in appearance, culture, history, and orientation, we are all people and our right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness will not be halted by policy, bigotry, labels, stigma, or hate.
So hold tight to those you care about, and if you can help, do as much as you can. It is, after all, the people that define a nation.

This message has been posted to all SSG efforts, but we feel that it is especially important here, as it goes in line with the lesson that Farrah "Sisk" Barney left for us.

A Hasty Start to a Prominent Goal - Welcome
Welcome to SaveOurSisk.org - Your central repository of information, reports, news, and opinions regarding Farrah "Siskmarek" Barney and her tragic situation.
We invite you to get to know Sisk by checking out the "About Sisk" page, and then discover the adversity she faces by heading over to "Sisk's Story".
It is with regret we must report that the start of SaveOurSisk was hastily moved up in response to recent unfortunate events. Many aspects of this site are still under construction and we ask that you bear with us while we get the site up to standard. Keep in mind that this effort is just one of many operated by the Social Saviors Group and resources are allocated according to priority. Nonetheless, we will do our best to keep you updated as more news becomes present.
Sisk Report - 2017/01/17:
Sisk is presently in jail in Maricopa County, Arizona awaiting a hearing to find out what she will be charged with. Much information is currently up in the air but the following is what we know.
1. Farrah was discharged unexpectedly from group therapy on December 9th. Normal protocols were not followed.
2. Farrah was arrested for unspecified probation violations after her apartment was searched on December 21st.
3. Farrah is currently held at the Lower Buckeye Jail. As a transgendered woman in a male facility, she requested protective custody for her safety.
4. The prosecution is considering additional charges related to her alleged failure to file all the required paperwork. These are felony charges.
5. Farrah has a skilled attorney to defend her against the probation violations. The additional charges would require additional resources. Farrah's current attorney would be able to represent her, but that would come with an increase in attorney fees. Farrah's attorney has estimated it will require $15k to defend her against the additional charges.
6. Farrah will be formally charged on January 31st. The date for the trial will be set at that point.
Stay with us for further updates as they arrive.
