The Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) has announced that it has opened more than 100 cases related to “incidents of doxing and threats” against employees of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The OPR, which oversees the conduct of federal law‑enforcement personnel, said the cases stem from a surge in online harassment and the publication of personal information that could endanger ICE staff.

According to ICE officials, the incidents involve the disclosure of employees’ private data—such as addresses, phone numbers, and workplace locations—alongside direct threats of violence. The agency has been working with federal prosecutors and cybersecurity teams to investigate the sources of the doxing and to assess potential criminal liability. The OPR’s action reflects a broader effort to protect federal employees from targeted harassment that has escalated in recent months.

In closing, ICE officials emphasized that the agency remains committed to safeguarding its personnel and will continue to cooperate with law‑enforcement partners to bring perpetrators to justice. The OPR’s investigation is ongoing, and additional cases may be added as new evidence emerges.
