Can you elaborate what you are trying to establish?

if you are trying to prevent a certain user from doing anything at all in your website. i suggest ACL. if you are trying to stop a model from updating/inserting if it was fetched from a userid. extend the findfirst and find and throw exception when a user only provides id.

public function beforeValidation()
{
    if($this->session->get("user_id") == ??)
    {
        return false; // or true
    }
}
