Personal information of 4,500 ICE and Border Patrol agents is leaked online

Details of thousands of alleged ICE agents and Border Patrol employees have been leaked online following the fatal shooting of Renee Good in Minneapolis.

The identities of around 4,500 federal agents were shared with the ICE List website by a Department of Homeland Security whistleblower, according to a report.

The dataset includes information on around 2,000 agents and 150 supervisors, according to Dominick Skinner, who launched ICE List. Early analysis from the volunteer-led organization suggests that around 80 per cent of those identified are still employed by the DHS.

“It is a sign that people aren’t happy within the U.S. government, clearly. The shooting was the last straw for many people,” Skinner told The Daily Beast.

As well as information on agents and leadership personnel, the website also has information on incidents, including deportations, deaths in custody and other “abuses.”

Site users can contribute to the online library, which contains pictures, descriptions and previous employment history for those listed. The database is also broken down by state.

Monday’s alleged leak to the ICE List is believed to be the largest ever breach of department staff data.

As well as agents, other high-profile people listed are Laura Loomer, Fox News host Jesse Watters, and DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin, who is described as an “ICE propagandist.”

In a statement to The Independent, McLaughlin, said that the alleged leak “would constitute 4,500 felonies.”

“The disgusting doxxing of our officers put their lives and their families in serious danger,” the statement read. “Our law enforcement officers are on the frontlines arresting terrorists, gang members, murderers, pedophiles, and rapists.

“Now, thanks to the malicious rhetoric of sanctuary politicians, they are under constant threat from violent agitators.”

McLaughlin added that law enforcement is currently facing a 1,300 percent increase in assaults against them, a 3,200 percent increase in vehicular attacks against them, and an 8,000 percent increase in death threats against them.

“Their families are being threatened. We will not back down. Anyone who doxxes our officers will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law,” she said.

Protests have erupted across the country following the killing of 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good, who was shot three times through the windshield of her car by ICE agent Jonathan Ross, sparking outrage.
