An American white supremacist couple who shot to notoriety for naming their son Adolf Hitler have lost custody of another baby just hours after he was born.
New Jersey parents Heath and Deborah Campbell said their newborn son Hons Campbell was taken by welfare agents at 6.50pm last Thursday after the doctor who delivered him called the New Jersey Division of Youth and Family Services, the Leigh Valley's Express Times reports.
Deborah Campbell said guards were stationed at her hospital room door to ensure she had no contact with her baby.
This latest intervention by child welfare officials has left father-of-four Heath Campbell baffled after officials allegedly gave no explanation for the move.
"There's no legal binding court order," Campbell told the
Express Times. "It's basically kidnapping, but they use different terms."
The family first shot into the spotlight in December 2008 after a ShopRite grocery store refused to decorate a birthday cake with the name of their son Adolf Hitler Campbell.
Adolf, now five years old, and his sisters LoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie Campbell, have been in foster care since child services removed them from the Campbell home in January 2009.
The couple's lawyer said a court hearing to determine whether the couple will keep Hons will be held today.
