Church Embezzlement Case Continued to March

An investigation WCAB News first reported exclusively in September 2025 has now advanced into Rutherford Superior Court, where a Marion woman is facing two separate indicted felony cases tied to alleged financial crimes involving a local church.

According to North Carolina eCourts records, Ginger Parker Sisk, 47, also known as Ginger Parker Frady, is charged with embezzlement of more than $100,000, financial card fraud, obtaining a financial transaction card without consent, obtaining property by false pretenses, and eight counts of felony forgery. All charges remain pending.

In Case No. 25CR409277-800, District Attorney Ted Bell alleged Sisk forged a church member’s name on eight financial instruments in September 2022. Each count is a felony.

A second case, 25CR409256-800, includes the most serious allegation: felony

embezzlement of $100,000 or more, along with related financial fraud charges tied to alleged conduct starting in 2021.

Both cases were investigated by the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation and formally indicted by a grand jury on Nov. 10, 2025, court records show. Sisk was arrested in September and released after posting two $25,000 secured bonds.

She is represented by attorney Daniel Talbert. Court records reflect multiple continuances and ongoing discovery.

As of Jan. 27, both cases are scheduled for a disposition hearing on March 11, 2026, in Rutherford Superior Court.

As with all criminal cases, Sisk is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law.
