Hi,
A certain family member of mine has apparently been using the PDMP in California (CURES) to see information regarding his Ex's and her kids prescription medications (he knows their DOB so he can find this information) to find out about controlled substances that are prescribed to them and is using this to blackmail them. His EX is a healthcare provider and also has a DEA/License. I know my family member has severe mental health issues and personality issues. He is definitely using this illegally. Is there a way that this can be brought to someone's attention? He uses the excuse that he is a concerned healthcare provider and is concerned about prescription misuse but this is blackmail and an invasion of privacy. The blackmail is that he demands extra time with the child they share (she has full custody).
Anyone have any insight on what to do about this? My family member does not have any role as a treating clinician for the Ex or her kids.
Thanks in advance.
