The records may include historical records as well as records relating to the most recent transaction or transactions that may constitute suspected or detected covered financial exploitation. All records made available to agencies or law enforcement under this subsection are not subject to the freedom of information act, 1976 PA 442, MCL 15.231 to 15.246.
