Two women accused of following a federal immigration agent to his home and live-streaming it online have been found guilty of stalking by a federal jury in California.

Cynthia Raygoza of Riverside and Ashleigh Brown of Colorado, both 38, were convicted last week of stalking a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer.

The duo tracked the unidentified officer to his home from a federal building in downtown Los Angeles on Aug. 28, 2025. They live-streamed their pursuit on Instagram and gave viewers directions to the house, federal prosecutors said.

They also encouraged their followers to share the livestream.

When they arrived at the house, the duo shouted to bystanders, “ICE is their neighbor,” “la migra lives here,” and “ICE lives on your street and you should know it.”

They also made racial slurs toward the ICE officer’s wife, authorities said. Prosecutors said the ICE officer’s children witnessed the abuse.

The Department of Justice said that increased spectator traffic in the following weeks caused the victim and his family to move to a different county.

The move disrupted the education of the officer’s children. Her three-year-old son, who is disabled, lost many Los Angeles County social and health benefits, the DOJ said.

Raygoza and Brown were convicted of a single count of harassment, for which they face up to five years in prison.

But the jury found the duo not guilty of one count of conspiracy to publicly disclose a federal agent’s personal information. The jury also acquitted Samane Sandra Carmona, 25, of Panorama City, of the conspiracy and harassment charges she was facing.

Raygoza and Brown are scheduled to be sentenced June 8.
