Biography

Heather Idoni, a Christian mother from Linden, Michigan, was one of the "DC Nine" convicted in the October 22, 2020 blockade of the Washington Surgi-Clinic; she was also convicted in a separate Tennessee FACE Act case and in the Michigan clinic-blockade case. Convicted August 29, 2023 and taken into custody, she was sentenced to 24 months in federal prison. A diabetic, she suffered a stroke behind bars in April 2023 — followed by arterial stents, a later mini-stroke and vision loss in one eye — and reported severe medical neglect over her insulin. She was pardoned by President Trump on January 23, 2025.
