A priest can be forced by police to give details of what was said at a Catholic?
No.
A priest can not repeat anything told him as part of a confession.
The Code of Canon Law states: The sacramental seal is inviolable and therefore it is absolutely forbidden for a confessor to betray in any way a penitent in words or in any way and for any reason.
Violation of the seal of confession excommunication of the priest immediately.
Priests may discuss things in general terms. One priest said that hearing the confessions of the second degree is like getting bombarded with cotton balls.

Besides, I doubt that she had helped to see the Pope, if he knew he were guilty.
That is just a theory - totally. I have no idea how it works, but it makes sense to me.
Yes you can, but the vote is taken very seriously by many RC priests who have gone to jail rather than break the "seal of confession."
I do not think anyone can be "forced" by the Police to give details of everything that is said anywhere. Therefore the right to remain silent.
I do not think so, but I think a judge can. So hopefully if there are "some" of the priest with 'dark secrets'….
bruce-priests are not God … only think they are …….
which is not privileged information between a doctor and a patient or a lawyer and a client can not be delivered
Secular and depends on how the country is civilized, it would not be the same as that of Italy in China, my drift?
Nope. There was even a Hitchcock film based on that, I confess. The priest heard the confession of a murder and then was accused of murder.
It is called the seal of confession, and is inviolable.
No.
No
This is what I had to say: "Father Haynes Hubbard, the Anglican priest who became close friends with the McCanns when they stayed in Praia da Luz, said yesterday:" This is absolutely wonderful. If I had £ 100,000 to Kate and Gerry, too. "
No, apparently God is well with you perverting the course of justice, if you say what you did wrong.
edit: physicians, psychiatrists, etc. have to say.
If you or someone elses life is considered at risk (or if you have sexual thoughts about children)
I would say that killing someone qualifies …
It is necessary to alert the police.
Surprisingly, no. This is a relic of medieval times. At one time, people are looking for the police or the authorities could seek refuge in churches. While in the Holy Land, no one can play (in theory anyway). While the law no longer exists in the U.S., this idea of holiness is a vestige confessional idea.
If a priest is something he said in a confession that is illegal or could lead to injury to another person then has the duty to report the matter to the competent authorities. Do you think for a minute if someone went to confession and confessed that he had planted a bomb in the church that the priest not tell people in his church and in contact with the bomb squad through the police.
NO
Even a doctor has the same right
And why not?
no
Not by the police … but perhaps for the courts!
no, if not automatically ex-communicated and burns in hell forever.
N º. If you can not see anyone in the confessional!
edit: I doubt that someone confess to a felony in a confessional, but I guess that would inform the authorities in case of a murder, he confessed that he had been in some way … I do not think that the ten Hail Mary would do!
