After all of this, Caleb was placed under a 5150, a 72-hour mental health hold.

He was sent to Rady Children's Hospital in order to be evaluated, not only for his interest in committing a shooting, but also for suicidal ideation.

A detective who signed the order wrote, Based on the totality of it all, with the depression starting from last year with the breakup from his girlfriend and obsession of mass shooters, along with his father owning 12 firearms inside the residence, it was determined Vasquez would be a danger not only to himself but to others as well.

Um, uh, Peter Newton is gonna talk about where are we going? What are we doing? Just keep asking.

Uh, Peter, as I think you all know, is a pediatric orthopedic surgeon at Rady Children's Hospital in San Diego.

Uh, and he's practiced there for more than thirty years, specializing in the care of children and adolescents with spinal deformities.

He's a clinical professor in the Department of Orthopedic Surgery at UCSD.

So I trained in internal medicine at UC San Diego and did my fellowship at UCSD as well and have stayed on as faculty.

And during fellowship, I was doing a consult for a severe asthmatic exacerbation at Rady Children's Hospital.

And I remember rounding with Dr. Seema Sevez, who the world of our field knows for her EOE research.

But she had mentioned something very interesting about potential triggers for this particular child in terms of what might have triggered the exacerbation.
