ICE List Says DHS Whistleblower Leaked Data on 4,500 DHS and ICE Personnel

Officials warn that exposing identities could endanger officers' families.

Overview

  • ICE List's founder says a DHS employee provided records for roughly 4,500 ICE, Border Patrol, and other DHS staff following the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good.
  • The dataset reportedly includes names, work emails, phone numbers, job roles, and résumé details, with about 1,800 frontline agents and 150 supervisors identified and an estimated 80 percent still employed.
  • The site says it now holds around 6,500 records in total and plans to publish most verified names, with case-by-case exceptions for roles such as childcare workers and nurses.
  • The volunteer-run project is hosted outside the United States, uses artificial intelligence to verify identities, and the founder said an initial batch of entries was set for release Tuesday night.
  • DHS officials, including Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin, caution that publication raises safety risks for agents, while lawmakers have pushed anti-doxxing measures such as Rep. Marsha Blackburn’s proposal.
