BOISE, ID – A situation being deemed as a medical kidnapping has been unfolding in Boise, Idaho concerning a 10-month-old baby, Cyrus, who has been suffering with digestive issues.

Cyrus’ parents, Marissa and Levi Anderson, are currently fighting a battle with CPS, the Meridian Police Department, and St. Luke’s Hospital. Cyrus was taken to the emergency room on March 1 because he was vomiting and generally sick. After undergoing many tests and exams, he was released after a week with the knowledge that he had some kind of digestive issues to do with protein, so he was unable to eat solid foods yet.
Other than the digestive issues, Cyrus was sent home with a “clean bill of health,” as his Grandpa, Diego Rodriguez, who is providing updates on the situation.
Still, the Andersons were taking Cyrus in for daily weigh-ins to Dr. Aaron Dykstra at Functional Medicine of Idaho. Marissa called the office on Friday (March 11) to let them know she wasn’t feeling well and wouldn’t be bringing Cyrus in that day (as per just about every hospital protocol in the world right now). The doctor called her back later but she didn’t answer (she was sleeping). Marissa then found out via text message from social worker Nice Loufoua that CPS was contacted for alleged child endangerment of Cyrus.
The police eventually pulled over Levi’s truck and detained him. Marissa and Cyrus were in the car as well, and Marissa was told Cyrus was going to be taken to the hospital but that she could stay with him. Marissa got into the ambulance meant to transport Cyrus with the baby, at which point a detective got in and informed her that she had to relinquish custody of the baby and appear in court to fight for him on Tuesday.
There is video of this interaction, which can be seen below. As a former police officer, this author is appalled and embarrassed to point out that one of the detectives (identified by Diego Rodriguez as Detective Hanson) in the video tells Marissa to give her baby to the EMT and be on her “merry way.” It doesn’t need any further commentary, as surely just about anyone can see how inappropriate and heartless that comment was.
Marissa, who is compliant aside from begging the officers not to make her leave her infant (who is completely dependent on her breastmilk due to his health issues), is placed under arrest by the same detective who can’t understand why she won’t just give up her baby and leave without a word. “She’s going to jail,” the detective is heard telling another officer in a dismissive tone when the officer asks what Marissa’s going to do.
Activist and Idaho gubernatorial candidate Ammon Bundy and several other supporters arrived at St. Luke’s on Saturday morning (March 12) to protest Cyrus being taken from his parents’ care without cause. Bundy was arrested for trespassing after allegedly refusing to leave the property after being asked to do so. However, video of the incident doesn’t show him being asked to leave; it shows him standing there talking to officers, who suddenly move in to arrest him without saying a word about it.
When CPS social worker Nice Loufoua sent Marissa a text message, Levi responded and attempted to get information from her on why CPS was contacted. Loufoua wouldn’t give Levi any information, other than telling him that this was a “medical emergency” and to bring Cyrus to Faces of Hope Victim Center, which is an abuse victim center.
After St. Luke’s first claimed that Cyrus wasn’t at their facility, Marissa and Levi were eventually contacted by the hospital (after hundreds of calls and protesters showing up all weekend). Grandpa Diego Rodriguez updated with the following information on Saturday after that phone call:
“The doctor promised that Baby Cyrus would not be given vaccines or any other “treatments” without their parental consent. This phone call, communication, and assurance that Baby Cyrus is well and not going to be given any treatments without their consent is nearly miraculous and is only the result of your support, prayers, and efforts to put pressure on them. Thank you so much!”
On Sunday evening, March 13, Marissa and Levi were allowed to see Cyrus. Shortly after, Rodriguez updated that Cyrus was in worse condition than ever, now also constipated in addition to not being able to keep down food.
Rodriguez said, “These moronic imbeciles at the hospital aren’t taking care of him—and apparently refuse to give him an enema which would take care of the problem instantly! They actually told Marissa, ‘we aren’t concerned about constipation, we’re concerned about him getting nutrition.’ But, you can’t get nutrition if you won’t eat because you’re constipated!!! This is the care that the government is mandating by force at the point of a gun!!”
Patriot Academy’s and Constitution Coach Rick Green has started a GiveSendGo fundraiser for the family. In the fundraiser, he said, “Imagine your 10-month old baby being ripped from your arms and you’re told by the tactical-dressed police to ‘be on your merry way.’ Imagine this happening to YOUR baby grandson & YOUR sweet daughter who is a caring & loving mother to that little one. That JUST happened to my dear friends a few hours ago & they need our help to get Baby Cyrus back from an irrational, unscientific, power-hungry social worker and out of control police force in Meridian, Idaho.”

Commies are fleeing to rural states like Idaho like illegals are fleeing to America. Next they’ll be coming to your town. Trying to escape the mess they’ve caused. They’re like vermin. Keep them out at all costs. Make them feel unwelcome!
That a child has issues with digesting proteins isn’t a HUGE PROBLEM is an ABSOLUTE FILTHY DUSGUSTING LIE. Typical of that disgusting industry. Protein digestion regulates everything in the body that makes the difference between being healthy and being completely unhealthy.
Unbelievable!!
Not if you’ve fought with cps or know anybody that has suffered their attentions.
Totally UNBELIEVABLE!!!! 💥💯🤬🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 ID BE FLIPPING OUT. 😭
Stop blaming the parents and find the root cause. Maybe celiac disease!
celiac is a gluten allergy lol
Celiac is an autoimmune disease that reacts to PROTEINS gliadin and glutenin and hordein and secalin. So yes it is a reaction to proteins.
https://www.nature.com/articles/pr197955 this is an article about a genetic condition that causes his symptoms. It is very dangerous. This paper includes information that may be helpful to the doctor.
My heart breaks for this young family. The problem is that she can’t nurse him forever and a treatment protocol is extremely important.
The doctor can’t help if he doesn’t see the patient. He is probably a very caring person and has been very worried about the baby.
Hopefully he is aware or can be made aware of this treatment.
The doctor who reported the family is NOT the care physician of the baby. The baby’s Dr. just testified yesterday on behalf of the parents. This Dr. who reported them is on a power trip. The baby’s Dr. was out of the office so he advised the parents to take the baby in.
Well, it looks like they just gave Ammon Bundy some free, positive advertising.
WhataShameTheseParentsWereNotArmed.
One possibility, that traditional medicine never considers, is the problem could be as simple as spinal alignment. There have been a couple times when I’ve been at my chiropractic appointment, where a mother has her infant there for similar problems. They were absolutely amazed what chiropractic could do that their primary doctors could not.
Big yikes how biased you are…. the problem is they’re not even learning about babies or trying anything except breast feeding. He’s 10 months old. He should have started eating solids by now but she doesn’t want to give him anything but damn tit milk. What a cult move. Can I go home yet? Why are we having another one of this cult’s dumbass standoff’s at the fucking hospital? Babies get constipated all the time and the stupid dad wants to give him an enema instead of food ffs. Baby needs new forever parents.
Wow, how wrong you are…. the baby’s issues are *BECAUSE* the parents and their Dr. had been trying to introduce foods to him and his body is not ready for it so that is what is making him sick. The baby’s Dr. testified yesterday to get this baby back with mom and dad. Brad Little (Idaho Governor) is a power hungry Rino whom has Meridan PD under is thumb like a mafia boss. This family was targeted because of their ties to Ammon Bundy who is running against Little. Ammon has also been *Wrongfully* arrested because he is in the running.
The arrest of Bundy, separation of mom and baby is all on film for you who want to blindly throw punches at this awesome Godly family. This baby was in the best of care.
Wow. One of the lesser issues with your comment is that a child can be nursed for years by their mother. Some will nurse up until the child is 5. And there’s NOTHING WRONG with that.
As for the rest of your post, you need to get a basic understanding of life & liberty before putting your incredibly stupid opinion out here.
Willow, you are the world’s biggest dumbass! You know nothing about babies and nutrition. A mother’s Breast milk is all of the nutrition a baby needs up to 12 months of age. Introducing solid foods before that is fine but some babies have severe reactions to many types of foods. Look up FPIES you stupid neanderthal! That doctor has violated his Hippocratic oath. He has done great harm and in fact is jeopardizing the babies life by depriving him of the only nourishment that is 100% safe.
Well, look at you being a giant cunt, saying cunt things.
This sounds like FPIES!! Someone needs to inform the doctors who are treating him now, this is a rare GI allergy that is hard to diagnose. This poor family!
Agreed. My oldest had FPIES, and it was a nightmare. I can’t imagine having the added problem of ridiculous doctors going on power trips and reporting me to CPS. Shame on those police!
Technically he is “sicker”
At least strive to equally apply third-world tactics across the board – meaning arrest and detain each and every person involved in this medical kidnapping, interrupt their lives, force them to lawyer up, take time from their jobs, loved ones, lives, immerse them in emotional chaos, detain them in different hidden locations and let other professionals ‘foster’ them. Yes …. from the reporting Doctor(?) to the social worker, to the officers and the admins that prepared the paperwork, until they prove themselves innocent of involvement with kidnapping and falsifying records. After all, isn’t that what you are doing to the child/parents? Guilty until proven innocent- and meanwhile the child pays the price?
