A healthcare worker appeared to encourage people to intentionally drug Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in a series of recent videos posted online.
In a video compilation shared by Libs of TikTok, the healthcare worker, identified only as Malinda, shared what she described as “sabotage tactics” and “resistance tips.”
“I thought of something good…a sabotage tactic, or at least a scare tactic,” Malinda says in the first video. “All the medical providers, grab some syringes with needles on the end. Have them full of saline or succinylcholine, you know, whatever. That will probably be a deterrent. Be safe.”
While the first video clip shared on X did not mention ICE specifically, the video was allegedly aimed at sickening ICE agents.
Meet Melinda, a healthcare worker at @VCUHealth. She posted a series of videos encouraging people to inject ICE agents with succinylocholine, a temporary paralysis drug, and spray poison on them. She also encourages woman to go on dates with agents and drug their food.

“Okay, for today’s resistance tip…anybody got any poison ivy [or] poison oak in their yard? Get some of that up with gloves, obviously, get it in some water, like a gallon of water, get the poison-ivy oak water, and I’m going to put it into a water gun. Aim for faces, hands,” she continues, while wearing scrubs, in a second video. (RELATED: Antifa Influencer Declares ‘Guerrilla War’ Against ICE After Minnesota Shooting)
“Get on Tinder, get on Hinge. Find these guys. They’re around,” Malinda adds in a third video. “Bring some Ex-Lax and put it in their drinks. Get them sick. Nobody’s going to die. Just enough to incapacitate them and get them off the street for the next day.”
A profile on VCU Health’s website indicates there is a woman named Malinda Cook who works at the hospital as a certified registered nurse anesthetist (CRNA). A similar profile on Doximity features a photo of a CRNA named Malinda Rose Cook from Richmond, Virginia, who appears to resemble the woman in the video compilation.
In a statement published to its X account, VCU Health confirmed the video showed a VCU employee, and she had been placed on administrative leave.
“We prioritize the health and safety of anyone who comes to us for care. We are aware of a series of videos that appear to have been posted by an individual confirmed to be an employee of our health system. The content of the videos is highly inappropriate and does not reflect the integrity or values of our health system,” the statement read.
“VCU Police are assisting with this investigation. Per policy, while the investigation is underway, the individual is on administrative leave and will not be in our facilities or interacting with patients,” it continued.
She is not the first person to allegedly target ICE agents.
Justin Novoa, a 21-year-old man from Ohio, was federally charged for allegedly threatening to kill ICE agents in social media posts, according to the Department of Justice.
A spokesperson for VCU Health directed the Daily Caller to the same statement shared on X when asked to comment on the incident.
