Overview
- Supporters Shaun Weiss and Jacob Harris say Chase was released overnight before a planned transfer to detox.
- Harris says the hospital stay lasted about 36 hours and that a rehabilitation coach was ready to help, but Chase declined to engage.
- Weiss alleges a crisis team later found Chase without shoes and "smoking meth" during an evaluation and ultimately did not take him in.
- Riverside police say they regularly offer treatment, mental health services, and temporary housing that he declines and they cannot compel care absent qualifying criteria.
- Advocates say a bed at Eleven 11 Recovery remains available and urge the public to give Chase space rather than filming or giving him money or selfies.
