I mean I can tell my lawyer if I committed a crime and it’s attorney client privilege. I can tell my wife or husband and we are protected not to squeal on each other. Same thing about telling a priest it is privileged information. How come a nurse or doctor is required to report it. I mean non of the above are life and death but a confession from a patient should be privileged in my opinion why is it not? Like if a person says they use meth or whatever, we really don’t report it. But if he get’s in a wreck and only causes himself or herself injury why are we to report it to the police does not HIPPA cover this?
What if I told the man I murdered in '03 that I blasphemed my wife to my lawyer, and that’s why I murdered him, to keep him from telling my priest?
Then you’ve killed the man you told and the court will have a terribly difficult time producing him, but if they manage it, you’ll have to marry him to apply any kind of privilege.
It depends on whether the man you murdered in '03 was a doctor
He was my therapist.
In that case, you should ask Tarantino for points on the back end.
