In late January 2026, Chaya Raichik (operator of the Libs of TikTok accounts) doxxed a North Carolina nurse who had posted a critical comment about federal agents involved in the Minneapolis killings of Alex Pretti and Renée Good. Raichik posted the nurse's photo, tagged his hospital, and tagged the North Carolina Board of Nursing, urging the board to revoke his license. The nurse was not publicly named in the coverage reviewed.
What happened
In late January 2026, a North Carolina nurse posted a comment online about federal agents involved in the Minneapolis killings of Alex Pretti and Renée Good. The comment, quoted in coverage by [The Advocate](https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/libs-tiktoks-chaya-raichik-doxxes-004651710.html) and [LGBTQ Nation](https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2026/01/libs-of-tiktok-doxes-people-for-opposing-ice-its-extrajudicial-killings/), read: 'The agents who put [Pretti] in harm's way better pray they never end up in a hospital, the nurses won't be kind.' Chaya Raichik, who operates the Libs of TikTok accounts, surfaced the post, screenshotted it, attached the nurse's photo, and reposted to her audience of millions. The repost tagged the nurse's hospital employer and the North Carolina Board of Nursing, urging the board to revoke his license. The same Libs of TikTok account has previously been [linked by NBC News](https://www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out-news/libs-tik-tok-bomb-threats-oklahoma-library-committee-rcna135369) to a documented wave of bomb threats against schools, hospitals, and libraries that the account publicly targeted. The nurse was not publicly named in the coverage reviewed.
What happened
In late January 2026, a North Carolina nurse posted a critical comment online about federal agents involved in the Minneapolis killings of Alex Pretti and Renée Good. The comment, quoted in coverage by The Advocate and LGBTQ Nation, read: "The agents who put [Pretti] in harm's way better pray they never end up in a hospital, the nurses won't be kind."
Chaya Raichik, who operates the Libs of TikTok accounts, surfaced the comment. She screenshotted it, attached the nurse's photo, and reposted to her multi-million-follower audience. The repost tagged the nurse's hospital employer. It also tagged the North Carolina Board of Nursing, with a call to revoke his license.
The same Libs of TikTok account has been linked by NBC News to a documented wave of bomb threats against schools, hospitals, and libraries the account publicly targeted in 2023 and 2024.
How it started
Pretti and Renée Good were killed in Minneapolis in January 2026 in incidents involving federal agents. The Renée Good shooting was the same event that triggered the DHS whistleblower data dump that fed ICE List days later. The Pretti and Good story has now produced multiple downstream incidents on this site.
The nurse's comment was one of thousands of critical posts about federal involvement in the killings. Raichik's role was selection and amplification. She picked the post, attached an identity, and tagged the institutions positioned to punish him.
Why this case matters
This is doxxing through a professional licensing body. It's a distinct retaliation vector and existing statutes do not reach it.
The defensive layers most first responders rely on assume the threat moves through home address publication, online harassment, or physical action at the residence. This incident skipped all of that. The threat moved through the state board that controls whether he can keep working. The hospital was tagged in the same breath. The intended punishment was occupational, not physical, and the channel was a regulatory complaint pipeline that exists to protect the public.
Three things matter here.
The amplifier had reach. A Substack post or a small-account screenshot would have stayed local. A multi-million-follower repost lands the complaint in the inbox of a state licensing board within hours.
The licensing channel is real. Nursing boards, EMS certification boards, medical boards, and bar associations all run complaint intake that any member of the public can use. They were built for patient-safety concerns, not for political retaliation campaigns. The complaint volume from a coordinated repost is a separate operational load on the board.
The corpus laws do not cover this. Anti-doxxing statutes target address publication. State privacy laws cover state-held records. Neither addresses the use of a licensing-board complaint as a coordinated harassment lever.
What this means for you
If you're a nurse, EMT, paramedic, doctor, sheriff's deputy, or any first responder who works under a state license, the licensing board is a parallel attack surface. Broker removal does not reach it. The corpus laws do not reach it.
Two practical layers help.
Keep the personal data off the broker pages so a Libs of TikTok-style repost cannot also push your home address into the same audience. We do that work. North Carolina has no Daniel's Law analog. The state's public-records exemption (G.S. 132-1.10) covers state-held records, not broker republication or licensing-board threads.
Before posting on social media in any context that could be screenshot and reframed as a threat, talk to your union or licensing-defense counsel. The retaliation vector this incident proved is not a hypothetical anymore.

Editorial rules: Only public, already-reported incidents. Never name a non-public victim. Always end with the prevention takeaway tied to our service. Cite at minimum one public source per claim.
What would have prevented this
Existing anti-doxxing statutes target the publication of personal information. They do not address the use of professional licensing-board complaint channels as a retaliation vector. For nurses, EMTs, paramedics, doctors, and any first responder who works under a state license, the licensing board is a parallel attack surface that broker opt-outs do not reach. The defensive layer is two-part. First, keep the home and personal data off the broker pages so a Libs of TikTok-style repost cannot also push a home address. Second, talk to your union or licensing-defense counsel before posting on social media in any context that could be screenshot and reframed as a threat. We handle the broker-removal piece. The licensing-channel exposure is a problem the corpus laws do not yet solve.
