A U.S. Navy veteran and his wife were subjected to the full weight of the government’s iron fist as Child Protective Services—backed by armed deputies—stormed their home and seized their one-month-old, breastfeeding infant.
There was no warrant. No due process. No criminal charge.
This happened not in communist China, nor in North Korea. It happened in suburban Virginia. In America. In 2025.
Farzin Yazdani, a Navy veteran, father, and respected engineer, has become the latest victim of a weaponized family court system—a system increasingly aligned with radical bureaucrats and progressive ideologues who seem hellbent on dismantling the American family under the guise of state welfare.
“I’m begging everybody who’s reading this that there’s a crime in progress currently, Loudoun County Government has abducted and falsely imprisoned a one-month-old breastfeeding baby from its innocent mother. Please spread the story far and wide. Interact with it like it Do whatever the algorithm needs to spread this story for the love of God,” Yazdani wrote on X.

Loudoun County Child Protective Services (CPS), flanked by armed deputies from the sheriff’s department, stormed the Yazdani home in what the father describes as a “coordinated ambush” based on a false affidavit from a bitter ex-wife embroiled in a custody battle.
The infant—completely healthy, cared for, and bonded to her mother—was removed with zero regard for constitutional rights, familial bonds, or even basic human decency.

Yazdani wrote in a post on X:
“This is government terrorism. And every man in America needs to understand: if it can happen to me, it can happen to you.
I may have been the target of an investigation. There are no charges or litigation pending against me. If they bring some, Fine—I’ll face it. I’ll fight it. But what justifies taking my children away from their innocent mother? What justifies ripping a one-month-old breastfeeding baby from the woman who carried her, nurtured her, and has never been accused of anything?
There is no justification. There is no logic. There is only cruelty.
This is what happens when the system convinces itself you’re a “bad guy.” It doesn’t need proof. It doesn’t need due process. It just needs perception. One bitter ex, one dishonest affidavit, and suddenly, the state throws its full weight at you—not just to punish you, but to destroy your family.
Even when the lies are exposed—even when you have recordings, evidence, proof of innocence—they don’t stop. The stain of the accusation is enough. And now I’m under scrutiny, treated like I need to be controlled, while the people I love most are used as leverage in this twisted game.
They’re not protecting anyone. They’re destroying a peaceful family. They’re endangering children. They’ve removed a fragile newborn from the safest place she could be—her mother’s arms—and handed her over to a system where children do die in state care.
This isn’t justice. This is government-sponsored child abuse. This is psychological warfare. This is terror.
I’ve been honorable. I’ve been respectful. I’ve shown love and restraint even toward those who’ve betrayed me. But I will not be silent while this happens. Everyone needs to hear this. Everyone needs to wake up.
Please share this. Help me make noise. Help me expose what they’re doing—not just to me, but to thousands of families across this country.”

The October 14 Raid: A Family Torn Apart
Yazdani says the trauma began long before this latest attack. In October 2024, Loudoun County deputies arrived with his ex-wife and her new husband to forcibly remove his 5-year-old son—without investigation, warrant, or questions.
Yazdani, calm and compliant, was placed in handcuffs by Deputy Stephen V. Mieszala, who would later be caught withholding body cam footage and showing up at custody hearings alongside the ex-wife.
Yazdani wrote:
On October 14th, 2024, at 3:00 p.m., I was exercising my court-approved visitation with my son when my ex-wife, Amanda [Macintosh (formerly Jones)], showed up unannounced and uninvited to my brother’s home—the former residence of my late father.
She brought with her Deputy First Class Stephen V. Mieszala (#3343) of the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office. I had calmly asked for an extension to my weekend visit. Amanda refused—and instead escalated the situation by bringing law enforcement to a peaceful home.
What happened next was pure abuse of power.
Without cause, warrant, or investigation, Deputy Mieszala immediately placed me in handcuffs, ignoring the fact that I was calm, cooperative, and clearly trying to de-escalate.
You will hear in this video the most painful part of all:
My 5-year-old son screaming and begging to stay with me—his father—as I’m arrested in front of him. That is a sound I will never forget.
And neither will he.
This moment shattered more than just my pride. It devastated my relationship with my brother, a law-abiding citizen who now believes I brought shame and scrutiny to his home. We haven’t spoken since.
I am a U.S. Navy veteran, an engineer, a business owner, a father, and a homeowner in Loudoun County. I have no criminal history. I’ve served my country and community honorably. And still, I was treated like a criminal—with my son forced to watch.
Deputy Mieszala later falsely claimed he witnessed an assault, alleging that I “retreated into the house” and the door struck Amanda. But the body cam footage—which he withheld—proved that never happened. In fact, if he had actually witnessed an assault, why was I detained while he “investigated”?
During the arrest, I told him the cuffs were too tight. Instead of loosening them, he tightened them further. I was placed in a hot patrol car without airflow, left to suffer. Even after the magistrate released me on my own recognizance, I was held for 6.5 more hours under the excuse of a “shift change.” That’s not procedure. That’s punishment.
The charge? Nolle prosequi.
Dismissed.
Because there was no evidence, no crime, and a lying officer who withheld the truth.
Deputy Mieszala is now a witness for Amanda in our custody case—using his badge and the credibility of his office to further a personal agenda. This is weaponization of law enforcement, plain and simple.
This video isn’t just about me.
It’s about how the system destroys families under color of law.

No Charges, No Crimes, Just Guns: The March 28 Abduction
Fast forward to March 28, 2025. Loudoun County CPS, led by employees like Kellie Hendricks and Chandler Evans, escalated their attack.
Without warning, warrant, or evidence, they stormed Yazdani’s home, backed by armed deputies, and demanded his one-month-old daughter, Roxana. The baby, still breastfeeding and wholly dependent on her mother, Emily, was taken at gunpoint.
Loudoun County CPS, with no emergency declaration and no warrant, arrived to seize baby Roxana—just 1 month old—from her mother’s arms. The baby, still breastfeeding, was taken by force. No medical emergency. No risk of harm. Just a social worker acting on hearsay, backed by armed government muscle.

For eight excruciating days, Roxana remained in government custody. She was reportedly injured while under state care—a fragile newborn, taken from her source of nourishment and placed in a cold, impersonal system known for traumatizing the very children it claims to protect.
Video evidence now released by Yazdani shows the disturbing truth: law enforcement and CPS agents operating more like a paramilitary unit than civil servants. Deputies admit on camera that they weren’t briefed on the facts. One says, “We’re just here to enforce,” even when told the child was only 1 month old.

The Fight Continues
After eight days of torment, Farzin Yazdani and his wife, Emily, reclaimed their daughter.
Yazdani said in a video update:
“It’s really disheartening that elements of the Left in Loudoun County believe that they have more rights to my children than I do—that they know better for my kids than I do—that they can come here illegally, abduct my kids at gunpoint, and take them for five days without arresting me or charging me with anything.
I don’t have a criminal history or background. I didn’t do anything wrong. Anything alleged against me right now is just from a former ex, and the source of it is a former ex with an axe to grind—who I’m in custody court with right now.
It’s outrageous that they can weaponize government to the point that they come and take a breastfeeding baby from its mama. Innocent, both of them.
The ex is accusing me of XYZ, and that’s fine—I’ll fight it in court. No problem with that. But what did this baby do? What did her mama do? This is not right.
This can happen to you. If you think this can’t happen to you, and that taxpayer-funded family destruction is something that is okay—you must be liberal. You must be a liberal Democrat to believe that taxpayer-funded family destruction is okay—to rip a one-month-old breastfeeding baby away from its mama, both innocent, without due process, without an emergency.
It was all dismissed on a motion to strike.”
Though Roxana is now back with her parents, the battle is far from over. Yazdani has launched a lawsuit against Loudoun County CPS and multiple actors involved, including Deputy Mieszala and CPS agents who illegally seized and placed the baby into the foster-to-adopt system.
Legal costs are mounting—over $375,000 and growing by the day. But Yazdani isn’t just fighting for his own children. He’s fighting for yours.
According to the fundraising campaign:
This was a coordinated attack—no warning, no chance to respond, and no attempt to verify the truth.
They acted unlawfully. And they got caught.
We fought back.
At the five-day hearing, the removal order was dismissed.
We freed our daughters from CPS custody and proved they acted illegally.
But now comes the cover-up.
We filed a FOIA request to obtain our own records and our children’s records. CPS denied it—because they know what they did was wrong.
They’re hiding their corruption, obstructing transparency, and forcing us to sue them just to access our own information. That’s how deep this runs.
This isn’t about protecting children.
It’s about protecting their power and shielding their crimes.
And while we were lucky to get our daughters back, most families aren’t so lucky. Most fathers suffer in silence. They don’t have the evidence, the voice, or the resources to fight.
We do—and we’re fighting for all of them.
We’re suing CPS, pursuing defamation claims, exposing every corrupt actor involved, and pushing for urgent legislative reform to shut this system down.
But the cost is steep.
We’re facing over $375,000 in legal expenses, income loss, and ongoing battles.
If you believe in family, freedom, and due process…
Please donate—anything you give, even just a $1 helps with these heavy legal costs.
If just 400,000 people gave $1, this battle would be fully funded—and CPS would finally be held accountable.
Thank you for standing with us. This isn’t just our fight. It’s a fight for every American family that could be next.

Videos That Will Boil Your Blood: Government Overreach Caught on Tape
These videos don’t just show a tragic miscarriage of justice—they expose what happens when unchecked bureaucrats, activist social workers, and obedient enforcers of the state come together to trample over civil liberties in the name of “child protection.”
Video 1: Chilling: 1st Contact: Loudoun Co. CPS and sheriff lay an ambush to abduct my breastfeeding Baby
“Loudoun County: The Gestapo is Alive and Operating—Right Here in America
Kellie Hendricks is using your taxpayer dollars to manipulate false statements from our minors at school, obtain fake affidavits to separate families without evidence, without a crime, and without due process. In Loudoun County, all it takes is a false affidavit—no evidence, no investigation, no chance to defend yourself.
They’ll show up at your door with armed officers and emergency removal orders, all done in the shadows. They can take your children—your newborn, your breastfeeding baby—without warning, without a hearing, without justice.
They’ll twist your words, manipulate your children, and build a case off fear and coercion. This isn’t child protection. This is government overreach. This is authoritarianism. What you’re about to watch is Orwellian. This is the police state in action. This is Gestapo-style family destruction, happening in 2025, in the United States of America.”

Video 2: Kellie Hendrick Returns to Take Our girls—No Due Process, No Crime, just Government Abduction
“Loudoun County: This Is How the Government Kidnaps Children in America
The day after they ambushed my home with armed officers, a Loudoun County Family Services worker returned to serve emergency removal orders—not just for one of my daughters, but both. She sent those orders to my work email, which she illegally obtained by falsely claiming the school provided it.
She emailed the documents just three minutes before showing up at my door, denying me any opportunity to respond, to read, or to involve my attorney. When I requested she speak with my lawyer, she refused. This was not oversight. This was a coordinated abuse of power.
There were no charges, no evidence, no hearing—no due process. Just state force. My children were abducted under color of law, with full disregard for the Constitution.
They took a breastfeeding infant from her mother. They did not allow me to speak. They refused legal representation. They did not present facts—they acted on secret claims and unsubstantiated accusations. This is not child welfare. This is state-sponsored kidnapping. This is Orwellian America in 2025.
No evidence. No trial. No rights. Just raw authority, funded by taxpayers, targeting innocent families. Watch what happened. Understand how fragile your rights are. Because if they can do this to my family—they can do it to yours.”

Video 3: Police Threaten SWAT and Felony Charges, Unless I Surrender Kids Who Are with Mom at the Pharmacy
“Loudoun County: SWAT Threats, False Allegations, and the Government’s War on Families
This video is part of a long, ongoing pattern of abuse by Loudoun County Family Services and local law enforcement. This didn’t start yesterday—it’s been months.
Family Services has been secretly visiting my stepdaughter Melanie’s school, manipulating a minor to speak falsely against her mother and me—her stepfather—who has stepped up to care for her with no biological obligation, only love and responsibility.
This entire campaign was launched on the back of false allegations from a bitter ex, Amanda, who weaponized the system to attack our home.
And the state bought it—without vetting, without evidence, without care for truth or consequence. In this video, an officer tells me that SWAT would be called to my home if I didn’t hand over my children—even though they weren’t present. No charges. No due process. No basic decency.
Just raw coercion under color of law. They’ve taken a breastfeeding infant from her mother. They’ve shattered our peace, our trust, and our rights—funded by your tax dollars and justified by lies. This is state-sponsored family destruction, and it is happening right now, in Loudoun County, Virginia.”

In this video, Loudoun County Family Services and law enforcement escalate their campaign against our family by threatening us with felony criminal charges for abducting minors—unless we immediately surrender our children.
At the time, Emily was simply at the pharmacy getting medication because she wasn’t feeling well. In response, they threatened to put out an APB (All Points Bulletin) for her, treating her like a fugitive—for nothing more than caring for her health while raising her children.
This isn’t child protection. This is coercion. This is government intimidation, raw and unchecked.
They used threats of prosecution, police escalation, and fabricated urgency to terrorize a peaceful home, manipulate the law, and separate children from loving parents—without cause, without due process, and without conscience.
What you’ll see here is the real face of state power weaponized against families. If this can happen to us, it can happen to any American family.”

In this video, the officers on scene openly admit they don’t fully understand what’s happening. They acknowledge that they’re just there to “keep the peace”—not to investigate, question, or protect my family.
Their job is simple: make sure my child is removed from me safely, and that I don’t protest too much. They were not briefed on the facts. They did not know the child in question was a one-month-old breastfeeding baby.
They did not question the legality, urgency, or morality of the removal. This is how the government functions when its parts are disconnected: Family Services acts in secret, without oversight.
Law enforcement shows up with force, blindly enforcing whatever they’re told. The result? Innocent families destroyed, rights violated, and children traumatized.
The officers didn’t know. They didn’t ask. And they still carried it out. This is how constitutional rights are erased—not with violence, but with silence and compliance.”

Video 6: Forced to Hand Over My 1mo at gunpoint to Loudoun Co., VA, Without Charges, a crime, or due process
“Loudoun County: I Was Forced to Hand Over My One-Month-Old Baby—Now They’re Putting Her Up for Adoption
This is the moment the government took my newborn daughter from our arms. In this video, I am seen handing over my one-month-old, breastfeeding baby girl to Chandler Evans, an employee of Loudoun County Foster Care and Adoptions.
There were no charges, no due process, no emergency, and no legal justification—only a corrupt system and a cold handoff. Our baby needs her mother. She needs to be breastfed, burped, held, changed, comforted—every hour, every minute.
If left crying, she could become physically ill. She could die from neglect or stress. And yet, the state took her—like we’re not human beings. Like we’re not even citizens.
Chandler Evans, working for Loudoun County, is now placing our baby into the adoption system. They’ve stolen our child under the color of law—without proof, without a crime, without allowing us to defend ourselves.
This is not child welfare. This is cruel and unusual punishment, delivered by the government against an innocent family. This is how they do it in America. Loudoun County, Virginia. 2025.”
