In a shocking case that exposes the very real dangers of the left’s anti-law enforcement rhetoric, a Department of Justice employee has been arrested and charged with terrorism and evidence tampering for doxxing a federal agent during a raid in Brownsville, Texas. This incident provides a chilling look at the consequences of the mainstream media’s relentless campaign to demonize federal law enforcement officers who are carrying out their sworn duties under the Trump administration.
The employee, identified as Karen Olvera De Leon, worked for the US Attorney’s Office in Brownsville. According to the Cameron County District Attorney’s Office, her arrest is linked to a federal enforcement operation conducted on June 9. During the raid, bystanders filmed and livestreamed the event on social media, creating a platform for threats and criminal activity. “A male subject joined the chat and made an online death threat towards one of the federal agents involved in the operation,” the official news release stated. It was at this critical moment that a viewer of the live stream, later identified as Olvera De Leon, chose to weaponize her insider access.
Exploiting her position within the justice system, Olvera De Leon allegedly doxxed the federal agent, providing his identity to the anonymous individual who had just issued a death threat. This act of betrayal from within the DOJ itself represents an egregious breach of trust and a direct assault on the safety of the brave men and women who protect our communities. Jail records confirm that Olvera De Leon was booked on serious charges of terrorism and tampering with or fabricating evidence before being released on a $20,000 bond.
This dangerous incident is not isolated but is part of a disturbing trend condemned by the Department of Homeland Security. “Our officers are facing a more than 1000% increase in assaults against them and their families are being doxxed and threatened online,” the DHS said last month. This staggering statistic is the direct result of the toxic environment fostered by open-borders activists and their allies in the liberal media who consistently vilify ICE and CBP officers.
HOLY CRAP! A DOJ EMPLOYEE HAS BEEN ARRESTED for doxxing an agent to a person on a live stream with his personal info in Texas.
There is a SICK AND TWISTED ROT within our DOJ that still exists.
It MUST be rooted out. Make an example of this lady!
Of course she's a KAREN! pic.twitter.com/QiuihPVtvl

Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin powerfully articulated the human cost of this demonization campaign. “These type of threats against our brave ICE law enforcement officers and their families are disgusting. These officers risk their lives every day to arrest murderers, pedophiles, rapists, terrorists, and gang members from our communities. Comparing ICE day-in and day-out to the Nazi Gestapo, the Secret Police, and slave patrols has consequences,” she stated. McLaughlin further humanized the targeted officers, noting, “The men and women of ICE and CBP are fathers and mothers, sons and daughters. They get up every morning to try and make our communities safer. Like everyone else, they just want to go home to their families at night. The violence and dehumanization of these men and women who are simply enforcing the law must stop.”
