No. On February 6th, 2024, at approximately 9:26 a.m., Door County Sheriff's Department deputies were dispatched to Lily Bay Road in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin to conduct a welfare check on a woman in her 50s named Crystal after dispatch received reports that she had made su- statements. Crystal, this is the Door County Sheriff's Department. Come out of your residence now or we will be entering. We are not leaving as you can see from the last hour and a half of sitting here. The next step is we will be entering your residence. Please exit with your hands in the air now. Uh should we uh EMS standby? I already worked with dispatch. Okay. I think we can jimmy that. I can do it. Oh, fire's coming? Yeah. Oh. I mean, why don't we do it ourselves? Yeah. No. Well, if you want to, I mean, I'm willing to let them do it. Deal. I can't see in there. >> like there's a thing on there. I think if we just breach it a little bit, we can look in, clear it, see what's going on there. You guys said you tried all the doors already? Okay. Does mom have a key or mom's saying she does not have a key? There's a key in the entryway. Okay. Somewhere she said. I looked in the drawer, we couldn't find it. Bob says she hasn't been here in 3 to 4 years. Okay. Not mobile. Okay. When Crystal contacted dispatch, she left them a chilling message that read, "Ending this all. There's no light left in the world. God didn't care about me the first two times I [music] tried. This time I will make it work. Don't knock on the door. I won't answer. Don't try to find me. Plan B is in effect and I'm not going back to jail. Now, it was up to the cops to take action. Crystal, come to the door. We don't want to break the door down. Come talk to us. So sliding door is to a bedroom where we think she might be but then This is yeah. We got a suicidal threats call. Do we know if anybody's here? We believe she's here.

Her vehicle's here. She had court today and Do we know of any weapons or anything? Not that we believe, no. Has there ever been any weapons in the house? No. >> There are going to be two dogs in there, I believe.

There's a main entry door, but it's solid. What is Is that the same as it also? Oh, this is just a normal patio slider. Open it and just pop that. That way we can come in from the back of the house, too. There's dogs there, so if the cops go, they can keep their distance. Any known weapons Hi. Good, thanks. Good, how are you? Good. We're not 100% sure what the situation is inside. She made some suicidal threats this morning. Yeah, you guys have been up on the board for a while. Yeah. Do you know if she's here? Well, her car is here. She doesn't usually leave. Okay. Um She has a history of drug so, I would assume if she was going to try to do anything, she would overdose. Yeah. Uh not violent, but Sure. Do you remember the last time anybody was hurt or something? This morning. She didn't come to court and she talked to her attorney and basically made these statements. So. Do we know which door they're going to ask for? So, this is a bedroom. I I don't know if they're going to do this. This is uh deadbolt this, so Okay. I don't know. Is that Cheech and Chong?

They're not doing the front, too, are they? I thought I got to do the front. Officers on scene attempted to make contact with Crystal multiple times, including placing [music] four separate calls to her phone, but were unsuccessful. Fire department personnel were ultimately requested to remove the doorknob and deadbolt, allowing officers to make entry and attempt contact with Crystal. Is the deadbolt locked? I bet you I could donkey kick that. So, you look in there, make sure everything's in there? I can't see anything. It's black. Is that deadbolt locked, too? As far as I can tell, I don't know. Just watch if there's a dog. Right here. You want to try to pop this one off first and see if the deadbolt's locked. Okay.

Crystal was transported to Door County Medical Center at approximately 12:00 p.m. However, she continued to refuse communication with both officers and crisis personnel by phone. As a result, crisis services dispatched a mobile worker to the scene who determined that no emergency detention would be initiated. Crystal was ultimately transported to jail to be held on an active Door County warrant, and that's how a welfare check turned into a physical confrontation no [music] one expected.
