Which type of message is considered prohibited in MULES?

Messages that can be classified as prohibited within the Missouri Uniform Law Enforcement System (MULES) primarily include communications that do not serve a law enforcement purpose. Social announcements fall under this category because they do not provide essential or actionable information related to criminal inquiries, investigations, or public safety necessary for law enforcement operations. In contrast, criminal activity updates, extradition requests, and broadcast messages are all types of information that are directly pertinent to law enforcement activities, making them acceptable within the MULES framework. Social announcements lack this operational relevance, which is why they are specifically prohibited.
