Police told Page Six they opted to \u201ctactfully disengage\u201d in an effort to \u201cprioritize de-escalation by creating time, distance, and opportunities for communication\u201d with Hilton (seen here in October 2019) while continuing to \u201cmonitor the situation.\u201d Getty Images for Wellness Your Way Festival<\/p>\n
Officers told us this is a technique to \u201creduce the likelihood of a suicide-by-cop encounter and minimize the risk of injury to the individual, deputies, and the public.\u201d (Hilton is seen here in November 2025.) Getty Images<\/p>\n
