True or False: You should share case information with another LEA if they are working on the same POI/GOI.

Sharing case information with another Law Enforcement Agency (LEA) is generally governed by protocols that prioritize the confidentiality of ongoing investigations and the integrity of the information involved. If the answer is "False," it indicates that sharing such information should not be done without consideration of legal and operational standards.

In many cases, case information is sensitive and sharing it indiscriminately could compromise the investigation, lead to leaks of critical data, or create confusion among agencies. Each agency has its own policies on information sharing, and without explicit authorization or a clear need-to-know basis, sharing information could lead to unintentional consequences that affect both operational security and the ability to prosecute suspects effectively.

In situations where coordination between agencies is necessary, there are often established protocols that must be followed, such as through formal channels, before any information may be shared. Thus, in the absence of those protocols or an imminent need for disclosure, the answer underscores the importance of maintaining discretion regarding the sharing of case information.
