I've dealt with psychiatrists who after 3 weeks of seeing a detained patient couldn't make a diagnosis. Perhaps you guys in Cali us different terminology then we do in Canuckistan, but to me "mentally challenged" would be a clue.
Our 5150 WIC laws require us to establish that a person is either a danger to themselves, a danger to others and/or gravely disabled. We establish that criteria based on statements made by the suspect/subject, witnesses on scene, the victim(s), etc. We can establish the gravely disabled requirement with a few key questions. If the suspect voluntarily disclosed they want help, we write the 72-hour hold and transport them to a mental facility. If the suspect is taken involuntarily, either the fire department or our MET team will transport; if it's the fire department, we will roll Code 3 behind them. We will write the 72-hour hold once we arrive at the facility.

Yup, we call them EDP, Emotionally Disturbed Person. Challenged would be someone who has a disability. But danger to themselves or others is the thing that you need to determine. We use the same thresholds for dealing with the HBD types as well.

Here in NY State, there's a new law where all police officer candidates must themselves undergo psychological examinations with a licensed psychiatrist or psychologist before being sworn:

It has been that way in California for a really, really long time. I'm surprised NY is just now adding that to the hiring process.

Yup, here in Canada since before I got hired in 1985. You had to write these 2 bizarre 800+ question questionaires and then if you got past that you had to be interviewed by a psychologist for as I recall a few hours.

Was it the MMPI2? That's what we take here in California.

For the most part, everybody who took action and then transported the subject did the right thing.

Turn off sirens

Ask the father to try and bring the son off to the non-traffic side of the car. Ask father if flashing lights are an issue for the son.

If the son continues to display lack of self-control, and/or shows potential for running away from father (has dad grabbed a hold of a hand or arm already?) then call for backup to block traffic lane immediately adjacent to the vehicle.

Check my cruiser trunk to see if I have a teddy bear or similar comfort device available. Slowly approach father/son with comfort device clearly visible, speaking in low voice offering to son.

If receptive, ask son if he'd like to look inside the cruiser, maybe play with the lights and sirens. This gets him out of traffic lanes potentially.

In NY, pretty much everyone is described as an EDP over the SOD net, even if it's just a person who is upset / angry / sad / making a scene

That's one of the reasons we dropped the term MI Mentally Ill, EDP catches them all.

If you're talking about the Philadelphia story where the crowd allegedly filmed the rape on a SEPTA train last month, that part of the story turned out to be a fabrication by a police union spokesperson IIRC.

The big NYC subway problem these days are EDP's shoving people off of the platforms and onto the tracks in front of approaching trains. Besides the danger of the approaching train, there is the danger of a hot third rail to both the shoved party plus anyone who tries to rescue them.....

The "citizen journalists" are a problem to be sure. Too many folks would rather take a picture or a video rather than lend a hand or call for help.

Scenario (mods, feel free to prune if this is too contentious for this thread):

Lot of accusations flying with the Rittenhouse trial that police had "steered" protestors towards counter-protestors and taken a hands off approach.

Other issues with wild-speculation theories aside, it raised a few questions on crowd control / dispersion / diffusion.

1. IF police had attempted to stop anything...hell, it's an anti-police protest. I can't see that going well and would only escalate things.

2. So-called "Counter protestors" (to my knowledge at least) were not counter-protesting or marching so much as standing around (armed as a deterrent to property damage / looting / violence)

3. Crowd control is not in my area of expertise or knowledge of law enforcement activities, so in the opinion of the LEOs here - is it possible law enforcement on the ground there DID "steer" the crowds in an attempt to split them up / disperse them, but inadvertently this led to encounters with the counter-protestors (for lack of a better term for them)? Or, is it possible they steered P's towards CP's intentionally in hopes of conflict? This last is the accusation being thrown out and the basis of at least one lawsuit.

Conflict is never what an LEO hopes for. Conflict means the potential for death or serious bodily injury not only for the disturbing parties, but also for you and/or your partners. Mitigation is the preferred approach.
