Cally and Jed learned yesterday that the judge elected not to terminate the birth father's rights. That means there will be a hearing in front of the Idaho Supreme Court in 20 days to determine custody of Harvey.
The regional director from LDS Family Services came to their home yesterday and said they were pulling out of the case and if Cally and Jed want to pursue it they need to get their own attorney. (They tried to get their own attorney many weeks ago and the same director told them if they did that the baby would immediately be taken from them and placed with another family.)
We think LDS Family Services botched this process from the start and ever since have just been protecting their own interests.
We since have been in contact with the commissioner of LDS Family Services and he is supposedly going to check into the situation. Their ineptness and their treatment of Cally and Jed during this process is shocking. The birth mother and her parents are also totally disgusted.
Neddless to say, right now we are all a little shellshocked. Losing Harvey at this point would be emotionally devestating to all of us and especially to Cally and Jed.
Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers.
