The Agudah position is worthy of another council of sages, the one from Chelm. Yes, you can go to the secular authorites if there's a reasonable basis for concern. But only a rabbi can tell you if you have a reasonable basis. So you're still stuck going to the rabbi first despite legal requirements to go straight to the authorities.
