If TH was threatening suicide, she would have been taken to a hospital for observation at the very least.
I don't think in this situation, people would have shrugged it off, if they ever do.
Maybe. If she threatened suicide to Kaine and then denied she was thinking about it when LE got there, then it is a "he said, she said" situation.
Unless Oregon is very, very different from my state, they probably have a shortage of beds in psych units. I know in my state, LE is reluctant to take anyone in for a psych evaluation if they are denying any intention to harm themselves or to harm anyone else.
It is far from unheard of for someone to threaten suicide in the heat of the moment and then, when they've calmed down a bit, to deny any intention of hurting themselves. They aren't necessarily lying; it can be simply a matter of them coming to their senses.
I think all that anyone can really infer is that when LE responded to the 911 call, no one threatened suicide in front of the responding officers.
