#SaveOurSisk
The challenges of 2020 make it difficult to predict when the next steps of #SaveOurSisk will occur.
We're still consulting with attorneys and we expect rapid movement soon.
What will come in the near future probably won't be at all what you were expecting, but it's good news.
We're sorry this wasn't handled better from the start.
We failed in our duty to provide optics, clarification, and assistance when it was needed and it allowed mutual suffering to spread.
Today we are taking steps to ensure this won't happen again.
We'd like to take a moment and further apologize for the hurtful letter that posted to the @/Tailpoof account.
This was a topic that deserved discussion and better understanding, and its brought to light some issues that we need to address.
In response to this...

we have revoked access to the @/Tailpoof account from the majority of the team in hopes we can provide healthier publications.
Further, Sisk will be taking on therapy to help her better transition from prison culture, as it's become clear that she still struggles with it.
A very eye-opening theme is one where a system built to care for and rehabilitate the most vulnerable actively ignores and disregards policy that would enable such.
Our team has linked the relevant policy throughout to show you that Sisk was correct in her defense.

@DogpatchPress Legal asked us to be more clear on our last statement.
Do not further involve SSG, SoS, or our client in this matter.
Our relationship with Carcin is contractual; we do not fund, control, or support their personal matters.
This interaction will be archived and concluded here.
@DogpatchPress ...support and audience of several national organizations and legal support assets on the SoS tangent, so your insinuation is incorrect.
With respect, please desist from involving us any further.
@DogpatchPress The advice is appreciated, but what, if anything, does this have to do with SSG or the SoS tangent op?
You've made a broad claim with little basis about our organization when meanwhile your disagreement seems to be with Carcin.
You should also be aware that we have the...
@DogpatchPress Hello, there. We're feeling a bit wrongly tied up in this mess and we were wondering if you could clarify that last part.
Volunteers come and go at will, here - as is our model - and we have no knowledge of anyone being "abused" for amicable departure.
Could you enlighten us?
...with a focus on reform and progress.
At no time should any of our supporters be engaged in victim-shaming.
We instead invite you to place your efforts into reviewing and fighting for improvement to the system that fails offenders and victims alike.

This will be a quiet process w/ few updates.

Moving forward we encourage you to maintain positivity...>
