Given that penitents have a right to have their confessions in a way that allows them to remain anonymous, who is the priest supposed to report? Somebody confessed x to me and I’m guessing that it was Mr. Y?

That’s why confession should be behind the screen as is traditional. Today, they sit face to face in the confessional.
