A federal grand jury has indicted three women for allegedly following a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent from his workplace, livestreaming the pursuit on social media and then posting his home address online.
The indictment charges the trio — Cynthia Raygoza, 37, of Riverside, California; Ashleigh Brown, 38, of Aurora, Colorado; and Sandra Carmona Samane, 25, of Panorama City, California — with one count of conspiracy and one count of publicly disclosing the personal information of a federal agent, according to a Friday announcement from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Central District of California.

“Our brave federal agents put their lives on the line every day to keep our nation safe,” Acting U.S. Attorney in California Bill Essayli said in a statement. “The conduct of these defendants is deeply offensive to law enforcement officers and their families. If you threaten, dox, or harm in any manner one of our agents or employees, you will face prosecution and prison time.”

On August 28, the women allegedly followed the ICE agent from the Civic Center in downtown Los Angeles to his house, livestreaming the chase live on Instagram accounts identified as “ice_out_of_la,” “defendmesoamericanculture,” and “corn_maiden_design,” according to the indictment.

Prosecutors allege the defendants gave directions as they followed the agent and urged viewers to share the feed. Once outside of his home, they shouted to neighbors that their “neighbor is ICE,” “la migra lives here,” and “ICE lives on your street, and you should know,” as noted in the indictment.
