Washington Social Worker Charged with ‘Erratic’ Harassment Campaign, False Reporting, and Retaliation
The Washington State Department of Health has filed a Statement of Charges against social worker Tiffany Chhuom, alleging a years-long pattern of “aggressive, misleading, and erratic” conduct that includes doxxing, filing false abuse reports, and accusing individuals of heinous crimes such as murder and participation in child sex rings.
The charging documents, issued December 23, 2025, detail a disturbing campaign of retaliation against at least seven individuals. Investigators allege Chhuom systematically weaponized public systems, including Child Protective Services, Adult Protective Services, and the court system, to silence or punish those she perceived as adversaries.
Chhuom, who holds credentials as a Social Worker and a former Substance Use Disorder Professional Trainee, faces sanctions for unprofessional conduct under RCW 18.130.180, specifically citing acts of moral turpitude, dishonesty, and interference with investigations.
A Pattern of “Malicious Intent”
According to the Department’s findings, Chhuom’s alleged misconduct began in 2021. The state asserts she used internet platforms to misrepresent her education and expertise while simultaneously launching harassment campaigns against multiple targets.
The charges describe a modus operandi in which Chhuom would publicly disclose private information about individuals and then escalate to filing unsubstantiated reports with their employers, licensing boards, and law enforcement agencies.
In one egregious instance involving “Complainant 1,” Chhuom is accused of submitting false reports to both APS and CPS between September 2021 and January 2022.
Escalating Allegations
The state’s investigation uncovered that Chhuom did not limit herself to professional complaints. The charges allege she publicly accused “Complainant 3” of instructing others on how to commit murder, having committed homicide, and associating with criminal organizations.
Similarly, regarding “Complainant 7,” Chhuom allegedly posted false claims across social media that the individual had “participated in a child sex ring,” committed homicide, and was involved in organized bullying. These allegations were then reported by Chhuom to the individual’s employer and friends.
Weaponizing the Legal System
The DOH documents highlight a strategy of “retaliatory” legal maneuvering. In the case of “Complainant 2,” investigators found that after the individual was granted a protective order against Chhuom, Chhuom immediately sought and obtained a “retaliatory protective order” against the victim.
Furthermore, the state alleges Chhuom engaged in witness tampering. When “Complainant 2” filed a complaint with the DOH, Chhuom reportedly pressured them to withdraw it in exchange for a cease-fire on social media attacks. When the complainant complied, Chhuom temporarily stopped, only to resume harassment later, prompting the complaint to be refiled.
Coercion and False Reports
Perhaps the most disturbing allegation involves “Complainant 6.” The state claims Chhuom solicited a statement from this individual to support her false claims against others. When Complainant 6 later retracted the statement, Chhuom allegedly retaliated by submitting a fraudulent CPS report, falsely claiming the individual was “neglecting to feed their child.”
Next Steps
The Department of Health has formally charged Chhuom with unprofessional conduct involving moral turpitude, false advertising, and interference with disciplinary proceedings. Chhuom has been notified of her right to defend against these allegations. If she fails to respond, she faces discipline and potential sanctions, which could include the revocation of her credentials to practice in Washington state.



WOW!
I was one of the people she did this to. I’m so glad they’re finally doing something about it.
