He may have been severely dehydrated and/or intoxicated, but the reasons for his admission are unclear. He was treated there and hospital staff thought he was well enough to go home by himself. Sessions left the hospital and attempted to hail a cab, but got into an argument with the driver, who refused to take him anywhere. A police officer offered to give Sessions a ride home, but he refused assistance and walked away. He has never been heard from again.
