POST Commission Suspends Mass. State Police Sergeant Indicted in Deadly 2023 Woburn Crash

The suspension signals outside oversight during a pending felony motor vehicle homicide case.

Overview

  • The state POST Commission suspended Sgt. Scott Quigley’s law enforcement license and ordered him to turn in his uniform, gun, and badge.
  • The action follows a Suffolk County grand jury indictment last week charging him with felony motor vehicle homicide.
  • Prosecutors say he crossed the centerline in an unmarked state police vehicle and hit a van in Woburn on Dec. 12, 2023.
  • Investigators reported his blood alcohol level at 0.11, which is above the 0.08 legal limit.
  • Angelo Schettino, 37, later died of crash injuries, and parallel reviews of State Police evidence handling and a wrongful-death suit are ongoing.
