There are a lot of situations in which obtaining phone records would be a threat more than a help. Undercover police officers for instance, need to remain under their guise for their own safety and yet need access to a phone so that they have a means of communication with fellow officers. If the bad guys were to access their cell phone records and find out who they were, it could be a life threatening situation. However, there are also situations in which obtaining phone records can be rewarding and helpful.

911 phone records for instance can come in very handy and may even be that missing piece of the puzzle in a criminal case. People only call 911 if they are trouble and need help. Every single call that is made to 911 is recorded. These are personal and intimate calls made usually when a person is at their worst and are distraught.

911 phone records can be helpful in a number of different cases. Especially in the cases of an unsolved murder, detectives often find the 911 phone records to be one of the most deciding factors to help them solve the case. Police can use the date and time of the phone call to determine around what time the death occurred and to help them come up with a list of possible suspects. A perfect example of this is when Oprah recently had a show on the brutal murder of Bud and Melanie Billings.

This lovely couple had adopted many disabled children and they were brutally murdered in their home after a home invasion. It was a tragic story and the 911 tapes were used to show how the family was feeling and show just how horrifying that day was for them. 911 phone records more than anything are used in police investigations where a time and date of a crime need to be used to find the perpetrator. Although even the caller and 911 dispatcher may not realize how important a call is, in the long run it could be the missing piece to the puzzle.

Although phone and cell phone records can be obtained quite easily even by regular people, this is not always the case with the 911 phone records. If they have access to the Internet and a couple hundred dollars to burn, most people can obtain anyone’s phone records but 911 phone records are different. If you ever did need to obtain access to 911 phone records you would want to contact your local authorities. An attorney or police officer would be able to let you know what to do next.
