A man from California has admitted guilt to federal charges related to exposing the identity of an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) attorney.
As reported in a press release by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Central District of California, Gregory Curcio, aged 68, revealed personal details about ICE lawyers on social media platforms.
The term “doxxing” is described by the bureau as the intent to maliciously publish private information about an individual online.
In February 2025, Curcio made a Facebook post identifying an ICE attorney by name, shared her home address, and encouraged others to “bash” her at that location, according to the release.
He also repeated this action on another account, instructing people to harm her.
The report elaborated on “swatting,” a troubling form of harassment that involves making false emergency calls to provoke a significant response from law enforcement.
Details from the release state that the victim noted Curcio had once lived in her mother’s apartment in Santa Monica, California. Court documents revealed that while the victim had never met Curcio, she asserted that he had harassed and threatened her mother for many years, conducting a sustained campaign against the victim and her family since at least January 2024.
The office mentioned, “Although the victim has never met Curcio, she stated that Curcio had harassed and threatened her mother for years.”
A hearing for sentencing is scheduled for August 21. Curcio faces a potential sentence of up to five years in federal prison.
