A federal grand jury indicted three women over allegedly illegally doxing an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent last month, the Department of Justice (DOJ) announced on Friday.

The three women — two from Southern California and one from Colorado — allegedly followed an ICE agent home, livestreaming the encounter and posting the officer’s home address on Instagram.

The women — Cynthia Raygoza, 37, of Riverside, Calif.; Ashleigh Brown, 38, of Aurora, Colo. and Sandra Carmona Samane, 25, of Panorama City, Calif. — were charged with one count of conspiracy and one count of publicly disclosing the personal information of a federal agent, according to the indictment unsealed on Friday.

“Our brave federal agents put their lives on the line every day to keep our nation safe,” Acting U.S. Attorney of Central District of California, Bill Essayli, said in a statement. “The conduct of these defendants are 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.”

Samane and Brown were detained on federal criminal complaints. Brown is in federal custody without bond, while Samane is free on $5,000 bond, the DOJ said. The search for Raygoza is ongoing.
