NEW: Massachusetts State Police homicide detective Scott Quigley has been indicted for felony motor vehicle homicide for the 2023 crash that killed Angelo Schettino of Saugus. The State Police concluded Quigley had a medical event that caused him to lose control of his cruiser despite hospital records that show he was one and a half times the legal limit, according to court filings.
Suffolk DA Issued this release :
State Police Sgt. Scott Quigley indicted for 2023 fatal crash
BOSTON, March 26, 2026 –State Police Sgt. Scott Quigley, 41, of Woburn has been indicted on a charge of felony motor vehicle homicide for a 2023 fatal traffic collision in Woburn, Suffolk District Attorney Kevin Hayden announced today.
Today’s indictment by a statewide grand jury convened by the Attorney General’s office alleges that Quigley was driving both negligently and under the influence of alcohol on December 12, 2023, when his unmarked State Police vehicle crossed the centerline on Lexington Street at about 5 p.m. and crashed into an oncoming van.
The van driver was taking Angelo Schettino, 37, who had developmental challenges and used a wheelchair, back to the Lynn group home where he lived. Schettino was hospitalized and died a month later. A medical examiner concluded that the death was caused by injuries from the collision. The van driver was also injured in the crash.
More information will become public at Quigley's arraignment in Middlesex Superior Court on a date to be determined.
The matter was referred to Suffolk prosecutors in January 2026 by the Middlesex district attorney's office, because Quigley was a detective assigned to the Middlesex office. Suffolk's own State Police detective unit is investigating the case with cooperation from the State Police administration.
Quigley was on injury leave for eight months after the crash.
Other aspects of the case and its initial handling by State Police, which resulted in a warning to Quigley for crossing marked lanes, remain under investigation.
