infowars.comEarlier today I spoke with Simona Mona of Health Freedom Idaho on the telephone. She said that she would send me a basic account of the facts in this case, and I told her that I would share those facts with my audience. Simona is hoping to get as many people as possible out to a court hearing that is being held on Monday morning…
Friends we have an incredibly important battle on our hands. Something unconscionable has happened in North Idaho this last week. We were notified by the daugther of a local pastor here in Kootenai County regarding a woman of his congregation, Diamond Mehlhoff, who gave birth in Kootenai County @ KMC on Monday November 20th via C section. On Wednesday November 22nd, after the parents refused vaccination for the baby, the state became involved and took this beautiful baby, Elijah, from his loving parents, claiming the mother to be unfit due to a diagnosis of cerebral palsy (a non progressive movement disorder). They have stated the mother to be bedbound, which is not at all the accurate, she also lives with her husband Ari and the grandfather of the baby. This is an unbelievable, unheard of, egregious case of disability discrimination. Their court hearing is tomorrow Monday 27th at 8am @ 205 N 4th Street Coeur D Alene ID 83814 in the Juvenile Justice Center. They are asking anyone available to please come support them.
It is very important to note that the state did not take any action until the parents expressed a desire not to vaccinate the child. This is a common theme that comes up again and again in cases such as this around the country. If you do not intend to vaccinate, it is probably best not to give birth at a hospital if you have that option.
From what I am being told, the authorities hope to institutionalize Diamond, declare the father to be unfit, and permanently keep the baby away from the parents. This makes me so angry that I don’t know if I have the words to express what I am feeling right now. As you can see from the photo at the top of this article, obviously Diamond is not “bedbound”. She is just fine and definitely does not need to be institutionalized. And the authorities have never even been to the husband’s home, and so they have absolutely no grounds for declaring him to be “unfit”.
If CPS wins in this case, what is going to happen the next time a disabled woman has a child here in Idaho?
Are all disabled women going to have their babies ripped from them once they give birth from now on?
Simona is 100% correct when she says that this is an “egregious case of disability discrimination”. Those that are attempting to take this child away from Diamond should be absolutely ashamed of themselves.
If you would like to do something to get involved in this case, you can learn more on Health Freedom Idaho’s official Facebook page. I personally know the leaders of Health Freedom Idaho, and they are relentless fighters for the things that we believe in.
Please share this article and the material about this case on Health Freedom Idaho’s Facebook page as widely as you can. We want to make as much noise about this case as possible, because we want the authorities to back down and leave this Christian family alone.

***Update on Idaho’s baby Elijah case***
They were not able to finish the Shelter Care hearing today. They will continue on Wed at 8am and will have time to finish up on Fri. The family is hopeful that the issue will be resolved through cooperation with the department.
We must continue to call and email the hospital admin that began this atrocious act against a disabled mother and loving and very capable father. To contact the Kootenai Health administration office, email administration@kh.org or call Kootenai Health’s administrative office at (208) 625-4001.
We must also continue to contact the legislators of that district and ask them to please get involved in reuniting this family.
Representative Eric Redman eredman@house.idaho.gov (208) 623-6383
Representative Vito Barbieri vbar@house.idaho.gov (208) 620-0873
Senator Steve Vick sjvick@senate.idaho.gov (208) 819-4189
It is unconscionable that sweet little Elijah has been away from his mommy and daddy for 5 days now. What about baby Elijah’s right to be breastfed and bond with his mommy and daddy in these most precious first days?
This family will continue to lean on the support of their church family as they work together to be reunited. Health Freedom Idaho is working on a fundraiser for the family as they will have exorbitant costs through this process.

Diamond is an active individual who doesn’t let cerebral palsy slow her down.

For those concerned that perhaps this family is ‘unfit’ Health Freedom Idaho has been researching this story since the day that it happened. We feel confident that this family’s parental rights have been violated under the guise of the mother’s illness.
This kind of blatant disregard of parental rights is happening all over the country.
