Jack Quillin

Jack Donald Quillin is an American known for operating the now deleted LAScanner account on the platform X, which shared real-time information derived from a police scanner and unknown sources about Law Enforcement operations in Los Angeles, California, in June 2025. His activities sparked controversy, including accusations of doxxing federal agents, and led to public scrutiny.

LAScanner account and controversy

In June 2025, Quillin gained attention for running the LAScanner account on X, which used a police scanner to provide live updates on ICE enforcement actions in Los Angeles. The account posted details about ICE raid locations and, in some instances, personal information about federal agents, such as their names and addresses. These actions were criticized as doxing, with reports linking the disclosures to violent protests against ICE, including injuries to agents during clashes in Los Angeles.

On June 8, 2025, Quillin posted a statement on X comparing ICE agents to historical authoritarian forces, escalating public backlash. After his own personal information was exposed online, Quillin deactivated the LAScanner account on June 9, 2025, and issued an apology, stating, "I should not have posted the locations of ICE raids, and I will no longer do so," while pledging cooperation with authorities. As of June 2025, Quillin has expressed intent to cooperate with law enforcement, but the investigation remains ongoing.
