What type of personnel have access privileges to MULES records?

Access to MULES records is restricted to authorized personnel only. This is crucial because MULES holds sensitive information that is tied to law enforcement and public safety. To ensure the confidentiality and security of this information, access is limited to individuals who have undergone the necessary training and who have a legitimate need to access this data as part of their job responsibilities, such as law enforcement officers and certain support staff within the criminal justice system.

The other groups, such as the general public, academic researchers, and private investigators, do not have direct access privileges to MULES records due to the potential for misuse of sensitive information and the importance of protecting personal privacy and data integrity. This restriction ensures that only those entrusted with public safety can obtain and utilize information from the MULES database for appropriate and lawful purposes.
