A new court filing from the Middlesex District Attorney’s Office has revealed that a State Police supervisor may have known for nearly two years that a fellow detective was allegedly driving drunk during a 2023 crash that later resulted in a fatality.
37-year-old Angelo Schettino, a special Olympian from Saugus, died a month after the crash.
The disclosure was made in a murder case Quigley investigated in Lowell, with defense attorney William Dolan telling Investigative Reporter Ted Daniel, “a cover-up is unraveling” within the Massachusetts State Police.
Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan’s office had previously stated that none of her employees were aware of specific details regarding Sgt. Scott Quigley’s December 12, 2023, crash in Woburn.
However, in a notice filed March 2, 2026, the Commonwealth revealed that an “unsworn, non-attorney employee” recently came forward with a different story.
The employee reported that in the late spring or early summer of 2024, State Police Lt. Anthony Delucia mentioned hearing that Sgt. Quigley’s blood alcohol content (BAC) was .11 at the time of the crash—nearly one and a half times the legal limit.
The employee further alleged that Lt. Delucia stated Quigley had been drinking at “Teresa’s,” a restaurant in Woburn, with another trooper prior to the incident.
Lt. Anthony Delucia is a homicide investigator assigned to the Middlesex D.A.’s Office.
Attorney Dolan, who represents accused murderer Channa Phan in Lowell, is fighting for more transparency regarding Quigley’s history and credibility.
Quigley investigated the Phan case, which was derailed during jury empanelment due to the revelations of his 2023 crash.
