Success Story: Ashlee & Prizmo — A Mother’s Victory Against CPS
SUCCESS STORY: Ashlee & Prizmo — A Mother’s Victory in Montana
Posted by Morris Patrick | Stolen Children by CPS
In January 2025, I received a message from a mother in Montana who was on the brink of losing hope. Her name was Ashlee, and her story was one of pain, injustice, and determination. CPS had taken her newborn son, Prizmo Pozee Autocash Ashler Flamm Strainer, just three days after he was born — a healthy, natural home birth attended by her partner, a former nurse.
Ashlee had been fighting CPS involvement for over 20 years. Despite complying with court orders, treatment plans, and doing everything in her power to be a good mother, she was met with judgment, lies, and systemic failures at every turn. Her voice was silenced. Her health issues were ignored. Her rights were trampled. And when they took her baby, with no evidence of harm, no positive drug tests, and no medical concerns, she reached out to me through the Stolen Children by CPS website.
Over the next several weeks and months, I worked closely with Ashlee, guiding her through what to document, how to advocate for herself, and how to challenge the injustices she was facing. I reminded her that her voice mattered — and that she was not alone in this fight.
On February 26, 2025, Ashlee got her baby back.
The moment she shared the news with me, I cried. Not because of sorrow, but because of overwhelming joy. Helping Ashlee reunite with Prizmo reminded me why I started Stolen Children by CPS in the first place: to give families hope, to push back against a system that too often fails the innocent, and to remind every mother and father that they are not alone.
Ashlee’s fight isn’t over, but her victory is powerful. She now has her baby in her arms and plans to keep raising awareness so no other family has to endure what she did. She is a true warrior, and I am honored to have been a part of her journey.
This is what we do. This is why we exist. One child at a time. One family at a time. One victory at a time.
