This sounds incredibly exceptional. Someone is going to great lengths to get this fucker out of jail.
Any more info on this person?
YES.
Siskmarek Namaruk (Realdeadname Joshua Barney, newtransname Farrah or something like that) is my Great White Whale of Furry drama. Used to run a
sorta cute ask blog that I'd peruse because it turned the goofy Sergal 'canon' on its head. Thing was, every year or so he'd go through this weird thing where he'd go "I'm going to be forced to stop updates for a while and
MAYBE GO AWAY FOREVER", every year or so. Most everyone seemed to assume it was some kind of medical fuckery, but every time they came back.
Until they didn't.
Then it came out: Joshua had been a bad, bad boy and tried to get an underaged girl to move up/hook up (the party line is 'escape abuse', naturally) to Utah from Arizona. No more updates, because Josh lucked right the fuck out and avoided jail time, with the usual 'no fucking internet, you perv' stipulations. Here's where it gets less straightforward and really pretty dramatic:
Josh *didn't* stay away from the internet. There were updates to the ask blog and some covert Twitter and suchlike. Some people noticed this - including some elements of what's now 'altfurry' - and apparently reported him. So Josh got his cushy remote probation in Utah revoked, got reeled back down to Arizona (the story is partly told in the ridiculous story mentioned above), and eventually got dunked for four years or so in the slammer for probation violation. Amusingly the twittering continues, Josh's husband or whatever,
Carcin, a pretty fair 'cow in his own right, is handling the updates, mostly sketches scrawled on prison postcards.
(Edit: Oh right, the Trans. That happened about the time he got reeled back down to Arizona for pre-trial detention. A uncharitable/realistic read of what happened would leave one to think that Josh transitioned for special housing and treatment in jail but that would neeeeever haaaaappen.)
The full legal documentation for this case would be great to have, but it's pretty restricted for the girl's protection, which is fine. I really can't stomach the martyr act the Sergal set puts up for Josh, because really it sounds pretty cut and dried, and they go full 'Bitch fucking LIED' about it.
