Leidy Tatiana Mafla-Martinez, a Colombian TikTok influencer residing illegally in Los Angeles, was arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on August 15, 2025. Martinez had gained a following of over 37,000 by posting videos that revealed the locations of ICE operations and by doxxing ICE agents, encouraging her followers to harass federal agents and disrupt their arrests. She was taken into custody during a live stream from her car and reportedly resisted arrest. Martinez has a prior conviction for driving under the influence in Los Angeles. Following her arrest, ICE announced that she will face deportation. The arrest drew attention due to Martinez's active role in using social media to interfere with ICE enforcement activities in the region.
