Personal info of US police officers leaked online
2020-06-11
[IsraelTimes] Personal information of coppers in departments nationwide is being leaked online amid tense interactions at demonstrations across the US over the police custody death of George Floyd and others, according to an unclassified intelligence document from the US Department of Homeland Security, obtained by The News Agency that Dare Not be Named.

The document warns that the effort, known as "doxxing," could lead to attacks by "violent opportunists or domestic violent bad boys" or could prevent law enforcement officials from carrying out their duties.

Multiple high-ranking police officials in a number of cities, including Washington, Atlanta, Boston and New York have had their personal information shared on social media, including their home addresses, email addresses and phone numbers, the report warns.

"At least one of the police commissioners was targeted for his alleged support of the use of tear gas to disperse protests," it says.

Police officials nationwide have spoken out lately saying they feel caught in the middle of trying to stop violent protests, and feel abandoned by politicians in the demand for police reform. Some have said they fear for their lives.

#3  That puts police officers and their families at risk. This needs to be stopped now. "There are federal and state laws that specifically address doxing government employees. With regular citizens, doxing falls under various state criminal laws, such as stalking, cyberstalking …" Prosecutions should occur posthaste.
