Description
Summary:In Child Abuse Intervention: Conflicts In Current Practice and Legal Theory, the author has included inaccurate references to Lynch et al vs King et al, US District Court for Massachusetts, CA 78-2152-K (filed sub nom Lynch et al vs. Dukakis et al). Because of the potentially serious ramifications of such inaccuracies and of consequent misconceptions of the case, a response is merited. By way of preface, let me disclaim adherence to the construct of a "privacy model" and a "medicolegal model" and to the proposition that the tenants of each are in conflict.
