Re Criminal Investigation Into Garret Zegle’s legal Dox
Kevin Morrie
Dear Mr. Gascon and Chie! Moore:
We write on behalf of our cient, P. Kevin Morris, Esq, resident ofthe city and county
‘of Los Angeles, to request thatthe Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office and the Los
‘Angeles Police Department investigate the actions of Mr. Garrett Ziegler i, among other
actions, violating California Penal Code § 653.2 (Doxing) by posting Mr. Morris’ personal
information, including his ‘ome addresses and cell phone number as wells pictures of Mr.
‘Morris family on the sociel media links connected with the website marcopolousa.cam (the
Website"), operated by Nr. Ziegler withthe intent of causing Mr. Morris to be harassed and
physically threatened by Nr. Ziegler’ extreme rightwing followers.
Mr. Ziegler isa former White House staffer in the administration of President Donald
Trump and i reportedly known for arranging a meeting atthe White House to convince then-
President Trump to declar2 martial aw and use the military to seize vating machines and
remain in power despite definitively losing the 2020 election. Since President Trump left
office s reported by many news outlets, Mr. Ziegler has become a right-wing extremist and
provocateur. Asan examfle of ths, as reported in the media, following his meeting with the
January 6 Committe, Mr. Ziegler went on a profane and sexist rant on liveztream after hic
testimony in which he attzcked committee members and two female former Trump staffers
who have cooperated withthe January 6 Committee using misogynistic language. In that same
rant, ithas been reported that Mr. Ziegler also accused the January 6 Committee of being “anti-

white” and made such conments as "They're Bolsheviks. So they probably do have the
‘American founders and mast White people in general. This isa Bolshevstic ant White
campatan.”
Inaddition, we areinformed that Mr. Ziegler uses the intemet for harassment through
the Website and its related social media channels where he engages in doxing activities, which
's posting personal contac: information for individuals inthe hopes that other right wing
extremists will engage in Farassng and/ar violent behavior towards the individuals Mr. Ziegler
targets? We are further informed that individuals targeted by Mr. Ziegler have been reporters,
politicians, federal aw enforcement agents, and federal judges. Even mare concerning is that
thas been reported that Mr. Ziegler has doxed Gina Haskel, the CIA director, and the FB!
‘agents who signed the search warrant for former President Trump's Mar-a-ago property in an
effort to have extreme right-wing followers of former President Trump to harass the agents
and their family members* if one ofthe highest ranking intelligence officals and federal aw
enforcement agents can be doxed, then no one is safe from Mr. Ziegler’ legal conduet,
Recently, Mr. 2eglr has been focused on exposing supposed information from what he
claims came from a laptog belonging to Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden, and
\writing and eisseminatinga 600 page “report” on what he has titled Hunter Bidens aptop.® In
“reporting” onthe supposed private information of Mr. Biden, it appears that Mr. Ziegler has
no limits, respectablity or professionalism, even, as has been reported, going to far as to
publish the private lary of Hunter Biden's sister in which she discussed her emotionally
trauma from being a sex abuse vctim.® Mr. Ziegler uses harassment ofthe Biden family and
Anyone connected with them as 2 money-making venture. We are informed and believe that
(Mr. Ziegler has raised millons of dollars through his illegal activities. Further, we believe that
thisis why Mr. Ziegler has targeted Mr. Morris for harassment.
Mr. Moris is a friend of Hunter Biden ang, in May 2022, news articles reported that Mr.
‘Morris was providing financial assistance to Hunter Biden,” Immediately ater these articles
appeared, Mr. Ziegler began a campaign of harassment against Mr. Morris. In r about May
2022, Mr. Ziegler contacted Mr. Morris impersonating a wel-known Democratic fundralser

named John Cooper {*Mr. Cooper") in an effort to get Mortis to disclose information about
Hunter Biden. Once Ziegler’s impersonation was expased, Mr. Morris hung up the phone
‘Thereafter, Mr. Ziegler continued to harass Mr. Mortis by pasting pictures of Mr. Morris and
Me. Morris’ family onthe Mebsite's social media channels with derogatory comments. See
Exhibit A attached hereto. Motivate by the attack on his family and by Mr. Zegler’s blatant
invasion ofthe privacy of Ms. Ashley Biden, Mr. Morris engaged in a text exchange with Mir
Zlegler in which Mr. Morris called out Mr. Ziegler for his legal conduct an threatened Mr
“Ziegler with legal action uhile Mr. Ziegler just threatened Mi. Morris,
Following this textexchange, Mr. Ziegler cherry picked portions ofthat text exchange
and posted them on the Website in an effort to misconstrue the conversation as Mr. Morris
‘threatening Mr. Ziegler and asking for his followers help Because Mr. Morris was supposedly
very rich and was threatening him. See Exhibit B attached hereto. Essentially, Mr. Ziegler was
ring up his other extreme right-wing supporters to go after Mr. Morris,
‘Then Mr. Ziegler posted the address for Moris’ home in Malibu, Morrs' ell phone
hhumber and Mortis’ home in Tennessee on the Website's sacal media channels without any
reasonable justification or proper purpose for doing so. See Exhibit C attached hereto.
‘Thereafter, Ziegler engaged in conversations with followers of his Website who made
commantesboutvilence of calling Moret’ cal phone, and of actualy driving past Mr.
‘Morris’ house in Tennessee. See Exhibit O attached hereto, Mr. Ziegler encouraged all such
‘conduct of harassment of Mr. Morris
In addition, we areinformed and believe that Mr. Ziegler has harassed other indviduals
associated with Mr. Morris. This includes doxing three fimmakers who work on documentary
‘lm projects with Mr. Mos.
‘Asa result of Mr. egler’s conduct, Mr. Morris has been continually harassed via phone
«alls by numerous dfferert people and is informed and believe that people have been stalking
him from time to time anc driving past his houses, all as adiect and proximate result of Mr.
Ziegler’ outrageous conduct.
Mr. Ziegler’s conduct as described hereinabove, and other actions, have clearly and
Undeniably violated California Penal Code § 653.2, which provides:
{a} Every person who, with intent to place another person In
reasonable fear for his or her safety, or the safety of the other
