Prior to his death, St. Amour had been diagnosed with schizophrenia, borderline personality disorder and a mild intellectual delay. Between 6:19 p.m. and 6:38 p.m., Henriksen went to St. Amour's glass cell door and spoke with him four times. "He said he was going to hang himself if he didn't get to talk to the sergeant," Henriksen told the inquest. Henriksen said he told the sergeant St. Amour wanted to see him — and if he couldn't, he'd hang himself. Less than 10 minutes later, St. Amour tied the rope up again and hanged himself.
