Evidence, Mental Hygiene Law

PRISON SEX OFFENDER TREATMENT RECORDS PROPERLY TURNED OVER TO THE ATTORNEY GENERAL AND PROPERLY USED BY THE STATE’S PSYCHIATRIC EXPERTS.

The Second Department, in affirming the verdict requiring the civil confinement of appellant as a dangerous sex offender, determined the records of appellant’s sex offender treatment in prison were properly released to the attorney general and properly used by the state’s psychiatric experts:

Supreme Court did not err in permitting the petitioner’s experts to testify regarding certain communications made by the appellant in the context of sex offender treatment he received in prison. The appellant correctly argues that the language of a limited waiver of confidentiality he signed before receiving sex offender treatment did not permit disclosure of his treatment records to the Attorney General for a trial under Mental Hygiene Law article 10. However, the appellant concedes that his sex offender treatment records were properly disclosed to the Attorney General and the Attorney General’s experts pursuant to Mental Hygiene Law § 10.08(b) and (c). By granting the Attorney General access to a sex offender’s relevant treatment records “notwithstanding any other provision of law,” and by specifying that the psychiatric examiners chosen by the Attorney General be given access to such records, the Legislature expressed its intent that otherwise privileged sex offender treatment records could be used by these parties in the adversarial stage of an article 10 proceeding … . Matter of State of New York v Justin D., 2016 NY Slip Op 08241, 2nd Dept 12-7-16
