He may have a warrant for an unpaid fishing ticket in Kansas (his real dad was supposed to have paid it, but apparently never did). He thought that he'd have some place to stay and get the warrant taken care of if he went to the police and that way he'd have a place to stay tonight. They couldn't find the warrant and so wouldn't arrest him. He hung around talking to them and trying to get arrested for a while. I guess eventually he asked a cop "If I kick this guys butt, will you arrest me?" Talking about a random stranger that was standing there. I guess that was enough for them to arrest him for disorderly conduct.

I stayed to talk to him to try to determine what sort of shape he was in. I gave him $50 to catch a cab to the closest motel for the night, and waited around to make sure he got in the cab. He'd actually mentioned the motel, before I did. He seemed to be in a clear headed place. Hopefully he makes this work.

No, we haven't spoken to his Shrink. I'd asked my wife about that, but we hadn't done it.

He's not coming home. I think this is for the best and just pray that it works out for the better and not otherwise.
