I've been there.
Lord God in Heaven, Please comfort this family in their hour of need. Only You Lord can heal their hearts. I pray that they will open their hearts to You Lord. I hope their grieving will be brief and healing can begin. Bathe them Lord in Your peace and loving kindness. I pray Lord that Austin knew You and is in Your arms now and his pain and suffering is done. In the powerful healing name of Jesus My Savior I pray, Amen.
Oscar this one dug up some old hurts for me.

Law enforcement are not mental health professionals and it is unfair to use them as such. I have read that some agencies are no longer responding to mental health calls.
And a lot of agencies are discussing no longer responding to suicidal person calls, but I don't personally know of any that have actually stopped yet. But it makes sense. Sometimes the sight of law enforcement just escalates the situation, or gives them the chance to commit suicide by cop. There's no easy answer, but forcing law enforcement to basically play doctor/therapist has been the wrong answer for years now. Something needs to be done differently for sure.
