EXCLUSIVE: Candace Owens, 32, says Tennessee hospital threatened to call CHILD SERVICES and stopped her from leaving until her newborn underwent 'unnecessary' blood test - as she accuses 'hospital mafia' of inflating her insurance bill
UK Daily Mail ^ | 09/10/2022 | Alex Hammer

Conservative analyst and author Candace Owens claims staff at a Tennessee hospital attempted to hold her and her newborn daughter hostage after she gave birth earlier this summer - telling her she was not allowed to leave until they drew blood from the hours-old, perfectly healthy child.

Speaking exclusively with DailyMail.com, the 32-year-old slammed staff at Saint Thomas Hospital in Nashville, while recounting the '24 hours of torture' she says she suffered after giving birth to her second child Louise on July 13.

The mother-of-two, who launches the new DailyWire+ podcast, Candace, on Monday, said the alleged mistreatment started after she declined antibiotics and contraction-inducing drugs while going into labor. She added that it culminated in staffers threatening to call child services on the right-wing commentator.

Owens - who married British Oxford grad George Farmer in 2019 - further accused staffers of engaging in a concerted effort to empty her wallet, by keeping her for over 48 hours so her stay was not covered by insurance.

When she refused, Owens says that a hospital pediatrician approached her and her husband as they tried to leave, callously telling the couple 'that she watched a baby die in the 47th hour because her parents refused to stay.'

The pair ignored the staffer, Owens says - despite the workers' false assertions that her insurance would likely not cover the visit if she went against medical advice and left.

When Owens responded that she didn't care, a social worker employed by the hospital asked the couple to sign a document that said they were aware that The Department of Children's Services (DCS) could pay them a visit for leaving against doctor's orders, according to Owens.

As explained to me, the hospital won’t let us go home in taxis, even after anesthesia wears off, because the stranger who picks us up could take advantage of us, if we are still a little drowsy. Yes, it’s silly, but that’s their reasoning. I don’t have a ride nearby, either. I thought about tricking the hospital (”My ride will be here to pick me up later...”) but the hospital won’t confirm an appointment without knowing who will pick me up - either a ride from someone I know or medical transport.

Yes...a greedy one at that! They tortured me when I had COVID in the local hospital. The doctors are great! The hospital tortured me so I left!

You don’t have to stay in the hospital for the blood test. You can return to the lab and have it done.

What are you talking about?

I don’t visit (sites) or watch Leftwing media anything.

But, I also don’t visit (sites) or watch lunacy either. Which apparently really bugs you.

Your comment illustrates and proves my comment.
Its all or nothing. I must agree 100% with your kooky vaccine theories or I’m against all you stand for.
You demonstrate it a mostly daily.

Well you can carry on with your Nano Bot magnetic snake venom 5G Bill Gates mind control B.S.
Keep believing Twitter sources and whacky BitChute videos.
Continue to rely on the CDC run VAERS data as I don’t trust the CDC.

My statement was true.
There was a wall built between the medical community and people.
The perps, Fauci, CDC, NIH, laid the bricks.
People like you mixed the mortar.
Both share in the divide we now live in.

Not to be argumentative here, but if we’re betting, and guessing, and pontificating... it’s us that are uninformed.

She was there...

Additionally, the medical community has disgraced itself and is owed zero benefit of doubt.

“People like you mixed the mortar.”

Naw. The medical community and hospital management did that.

Everyone else had to try and figure out what the hell is going on since the entire medical community was lying. Or enough were that it was impossible to tell truth from lie.

So people had to critically think about an incredibly complex subject that is not their profession. Some are better at it than others, but to lay any blame there is no bueno.

That comment right there……..mixing a new batch of mortar are ya?

So let see if I understand this correctly………..

If a Doctor doesn’t believe the Covid-19 vaccine makes you magnetic or contains Nano Chips to communicate through the 5G network, they’re the problem and not you?

You are in a dwindling minority. With Covid slowly fading (wish it was faster) more people, I should say more Sane people want to move on and get back to normal.

You don’t understand it correctly.

I’m working with another FReeper right now on common sense. I liken it to Star Wars, because much like the force, it is very powerful. Unfortunately not everyone can tap into it.

We’re off to a slow start, with the other FReeper, but it’s ok, patience is required when working with Padawans. And I have that.

If you’re interested....

We have to legally, by law, remove health care providers demands to patients from having any force of law.

I could see them (the hospital) WANTING blood tests to test for things, but demanding it and threatening them with police and CPS if they don’t should illegal and I hope it is actionable.

All right! That’s the spirit!

Ok, first we start with two rules of life relevant to the situation:

1. Google is your friend.
2. Ignorance is no virtue.

Think on these, and the lessons shall commence apace! Glad you’re aboard, you have made a wise choice.

Then have your children born in a barn.

It is pretty simple.

When my kid was born (1991) the hospital required that before the baby could be brought home they would have to do a PKU test. However, the PKU test was to be done 72 hours after birth. So the hospital gave my daughter the PKU test even though it wasn’t a “valid” test and then we had to bring her back in after the 72 hour period to have another PKU test.
