During this hearing, it was revealed by psychiatrist Dr Claudia Camden-Smith that during an assessment, Kurtaj had stated his intention to return to his life of crime upon being released.

Whatever happened to psychiatrist-patient privacy and all that?

This isn't "his doctor". It's an independent doctor making an evaluation for the purpose of determining if he's competent to stand trial. It's not private.

Ahhh, I misunderstood. That makes more sense.

If it's an evaluation for the case, then it's going to be used in the case.
