When lawyers are forced by law to report confessions,etc that their clients make to the police then maybe priests can be forced to do the same.

But not a minute before.

Priests are bound by Church law, not civil law when it comes to breaking the seal of the confessional. Once a priest breaks that seal, it’s over for him being a priest.
