Is That All They Got? A “hold date” on an RFA — the weakest retaliation move in a case built on retaliation
Dr. Elizabeth Hernandez and Alfredo Guardado and Their Involvement in the Retaliation Concerns Surrounding San Diego’s Child-Trafficking Allegations
The Hold Date: Another Administrative Strike Against the Family, While Malaika and Xayah Remain Held Hostage by the San Diego County
ANALYSIS & PUBLIC NOTICE
👀
The Letter. Still No Malaika. Still No Xayah. Just more paperwork signed by the people who trafficked them.
What makes this letter even more disturbing is that it speaks vaguely about “children in the home” while refusing to acknowledge the only two children who should have been in that home all along — Malaika and Xayah, the granddaughters San Diego County continues to keep in captivity. Instead of prioritizing reunification, the County’s new Interim Deputy Chief Elizabeth A. Hernandez, Ph.D., and Director Alfredo Guardado, MSW, are doubling down on retaliation against a grieving senior whose mother passed away just days ago and still cannot be laid to rest due to an open investigation into a hospice nurse.
This “complaint hold” appears nowhere near legitimate. While the family home sits empty, social workers have been roaming the neighborhood at dusk, approaching anyone they encounter outside and fishing for fabricated concerns — asking about domestic violence and whether children were present, despite knowing full well no minors reside in that home. There is no criminal history, no registry, no probation, no restrictions of any kind; yet San Diego County treats an American elder as if he were a criminal for daring to expose corruption.
Not a single sentence in this letter addresses the only question that matters: Where are Malaika and Xayah, and why have they still not been returned to their family? Instead, this notice — signed off by both Hernandez and Guardado — reads like yet another calculated maneuver in a long pattern of retaliation, obstruction, and family destruction. With the County under public scrutiny, a documentary circulating, and Board of Supervisors members already walking out during accountability speeches, the timing of this hold is impossible to ignore. What San Diego County is doing here is not child welfare — it is child trafficking in broad daylight, carried out through paperwork, intimidation, and bureaucratic cruelty.
