Divulgación de información obtenida por medios autorizados

Explicación Simple

Esta ley dice que los policías pueden compartir información que obtuvieron legalmente sobre llamadas y mensajes. También pueden usar esa información para hacer su trabajo. Sin embargo, si es una conversación privada, no se puede usar.

Es como si tuvieras una receta secreta de un platillo familiar. Puedes compartirla con tu hermano que también cocina, pero no puedes dársela a alguien que no está en la familia, para que no la use sin permiso.

Ejemplo Práctico

Imagina que el oficial González interceptó una llamada donde se planeaba un robo. Él puede contarle a su compañero, el oficial Pérez, para que juntos puedan evitar el delito. Sin embargo, si la llamada era entre dos amigos hablando de algo privado, no pueden usar esa información en la corte.
