The New Hampshire Coalition Against Domestic and Sexual Violence says the ruling is a win, as mental health records are often used against victims of assault.
“It's very difficult to report a violent, intimate crime and then be in a public courtroom talking about it,” Lyn Schollett, executive director of the Coalition, said. “So for the victim to know that they can then go and speak with their therapist or speak with their advocate and have those conversations be protected is vitally important.” Lyn Schollett spoke with NHPR Morning Edition host Rick Ganley about how mental health records have previously been used in domestic and sexual violence cases, and shared her perspective on how the Supreme Court decision could affect future cases.
