Help Sarah and Amelia Keep Their Family Together

Donation protected
# Urgent Appeal for Justice and Support

I am Sarah Killian, and my husband, Jimmy, faces up to a year in the Douglas County Jail for nothing more than advocating for our daughter, Amelia. What began as a father’s loving defense has become a nightmare of suppressed evidence and conflicting stories reported by authorities. Each day that passes without proper representation chips away at our hope and threatens our future.

---

## What We’ve Discovered

- Evidence contradicting sworn testimony has surfaced, casting doubt on every claim against Jimmy. There is currently an integrity investigation but our faith that police will hold themselves accountable is not steadfast.
- An audio recording critical to cross-examination was also concealed, leaving gaps in his ability to be properly defended.
-Currently a presiding board member of the Douglas County Bar Association who specializes in civil law and arbitration has been assigned to the case, hardly the criminal defense expertise Jimmy needs.

## Why We Desperately Need Your Help

Our family has civil claims being represented, but they cannot criminally defend Jimmy without a conflict of interest. We have poured our hearts into uncovering the truth, but without a seasoned criminal attorney, all our efforts may crumble in a courtroom stacked against us.

---

## Our Plea

We hope to raise $5,000 immediately to secure skilled criminal representation—an advocate who can challenge these procedural abuses and safeguard Jimmy’s rights. Every dollar moves us closer to justice and keeps Jimmy home where he is needed.

Your support today means more than money. It means restoring faith in a system that once stood for fairness. Please share our story, donate what you can, and stand with us to ensure the truth is heard.

For those who want to do more:
- Follow our updates and spread word on social media
- Contact local media outlets and legal aid groups
- Explore resources on evidence suppression and conflict-of-interest challenges

Together, we can turn the tide and keep Jimmy home where he belongs.
