In most cases...can we assume it was possible that it was one of those "other cases".I agree with the parents.
Newborn jaundice:
Newborn jaundice is when a baby’s skin and eyes turn yellow from too much bilirubin. It usually resolves as their liver matures and they start feeding, but if it persists, there may be another cause.
In most cases, jaundice (also called hyperbilirubinemia) in newborns will disappear within 2 to 3 weeks.
Newborn Jaundice: Causes, Symptoms, Treatment, and Prevention
Newborn jaundice is a yellowing of a baby’s skin and eyes. A common condition, it can occur when babies have a high level of bilirubin, a yellow pigment produced during the breakdown of red blood cells.

"Temecia and her husband, Rodney Jackson, said they were following their midwife's care protocol for their baby's jaundice, which was to care for her at home rather than admit her to the hospital."
"After a routine doctor's visit, the couple alleges their child's pediatrician called Dallas Child Protective Services (CPS) because the parents were going to continue to follow their midwife's guidance. Days later, Desoto police officers and CPS agents arrived at the couple's home, demanding they turn their daughter over to authorities."
"Temecia Jackson says the officers arrested her husband, took his keys, used them to enter their residence and took Mila from her mother's arms"
Black women and hospital births:
"From 2019 to 2020, more people of color chose to give birth outside a hospital setting, according to a 2022 report released by the National Partnership for Women and Families (NPWF), a nonpartisan and nonprofit advocacy organization that works on public policies and education about women and families.
The increase was greatest among Black parents (30%), followed by Indigenous (26%) and Latinx (24%) parents — likely a response to "the higher risk of maternal mortality and morbidity they face and the impact of discrimination and structural racism in hospitals that result in lower-quality care," the report said."
"Black people are three times more likely to die from pregnancy-related complications than white people, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In Texas, at least 118 women died and nearly 200 children were left without a mother in 2019, according the state's 2022 Maternal Mortality and Morbidity Review Committee's biennial report."
"Discrimination contributed to 12% of pregnancy-related deaths in 2019, according to the same report."

Why do we use modern medicine that’s cut from real organic traditional medicine. These same modern medicine kill us physically and financially.
Possibly. For CPS to show up they missed appts.

So the doctor diagnosed this at the couple’s house? What am I getting wrong. They brought the baby on for the pediatrician to examine him/her and the pediatrician signed off on a clean bill of health. Why wasn’t the baby’s Bilirubin levels mentioned then? Or were the mentioned and I overlooked it?

Yes. They are...go put some mold on the your staph infection.

Meanwhile if the baby got sick if it was hospital birth (like many do) the doctor would "I be like that sometimes 
" and keep it moving.
" and keep it moving.Often the pediatrician does a test. If its borderline you return to the pediatrician for another test. Parents are instructed they need to return. They didn't believe that the kid needed another poke so they called the Midwife who said put the kid in sunlight.

If I’m not mistaken, my nephew’s test results came back quick, like in an hour. If the doc had results still pending, how could he sign off on a clean bill of health

That family ain’t shyt. Especially if they know the story. They’ll get their house shot up if that were me
Not doing anything in this case is paramount to "rub some dirt on it"I don’t know nothing about the former
