That same year, Dr. Bandy X. Lee, an Assistant Clinical Professor in Law and Psychiatry with Yale University, organized a conference at the Yale School of Medicine called “Duty to Warn”. Their aim, as stated by their website was “Duty To Warn is an association of mental health professionals and other concerned citizens who advocate Trump’s removal under the 25th Amendment on the grounds that he is psychologically unfit for office.” almost 800 mental-health professionals joined this group.
The term “Duty to Warn” goes back to a 1974 trial known as the Tarasoff case, where a patient confided in their therapist that they had the intention of killing a fellow university student named Tatiana Tarasoff, the therapist failed to warn the student directly.
