The fatal fall of a mother and her toddler son at San Diego's Petco Park stadium was ruled a homicide-suicide, police say.

According to Dan Gilleon, an attorney hired by the Wilkins’ family after the pair died, San Diego police had been investigating the incident as a murder-suicide since the event occurred.

Police officials said in a news release issued Wednesday that their probe “included dozens of interviews, reviewing of available video footage and collecting background information to determine what led to the deaths.” “We have a mental health crisis that we don’t talk nearly enough about, and COVID has exacerbated that greatly,” Gloria said to Fox 5 San Diego. “I hope that folks who find themself in this position — and there is no shame in admitting that you’re having challenges — to avail themselves to the many services that are out there.”
