Legally correct maybe, but morally?

that's a slippery slope and exactly why we have a legal framework. "give me hsbauauvhabzbs private messages because he might send CP and thus it's your moral duty!" can be applied to everything. "oh, we didn't find any CP but we now still have their private correspondence on file."
If its not worth getting a judge out of bed, it's not an emergency.
Yes, absolutely morally. Respecting this process is part of maintaining important boundaries for everyone.
