Hey, these are my listeners. I thought I would answer patron emails. So let's get to it.

0:04.3

This email is from patron Matt from Minneapolis. He says, hey, Kirk, I just finished listening to

0:09.6

your duty to warn deep dive and found it fascinating and very informative. I was wondering if

0:16.0

duty to warn and protect standards could be applied if a patient uttered and showed serious intent

0:21.6

to falsely accuse, falsely accuse their partner of a crime, physical or sexual abuse, for example,

0:28.1

that they didn't commit. Do you think this hypothetical would be the standards end of email?

0:33.6

Yeah, so for the listeners, if you want to listen to my ethical deep dives on duty to warn,

0:39.5

duty to to protect, I will listen to those episodes. It's pretty complicated. It depends on

0:43.6

jurisdiction and on case law. And there's a lot of uncertainty because these things aren't clearly

0:49.4

delineated for us as clinicians. But to contemplate your question by first reaction is no. If I had a

0:58.1

client tell me that they had a plan to accuse their, you know, say it's a husband and he plans on

falsely, he knows that he's going to lie to the authorities and say that his wife physically abused

1:11.6

him. He's going to call the police like they're going through a divorce. That's a custody case or

1:16.0

1:21.1

protect issue? No, because it doesn't alert me to some seriously, serious bodily harm, right?

1:28.8

It's a serious issue. And of course, I would talk with the client a lot about how they shouldn't be

1:34.8

doing that. I mean, even if the client isn't necessarily asking me for that kind of feedback,

1:41.0

that's just a moral issue that as a human being, you know, never mind that I'm a therapist in that

1:46.4

moment. As a human being, I'm not going to just stand by and watch someone do that. Now,

1:51.1

let's say you have a scenario where the husband has convincingly told me maybe even I have

1:57.0

corroborating evidence and reports stating that the wife is massively abusive to the kids.

2:04.7

But has gotten off. Scott free. And so the husband has to lie to get custody of the kids or so.
