I don’t know how you’d have a hard-and-fast rule about it for an exchange like this, to be honest. I guess the best thing you could do is an emergency PH if the author mentioned it, and a general statement somewhere along the lines of “gratuitous and prurient depictions of real life traumas involving real characters”? Although that’s so vague as to be nearly toothless.
