Sheriff Quinlan Refuses to Testify Before State Commission
Dutchess County Sheriff Lawrence M. Quinlan invoked the Fifth Amendment 12 times at public hearings by the State Investigation Commission. The panel probes alleged interference in arrests and summonses involving political allies and possibly illegal sale of confiscated guns. Deputies testified that Quinlan ordered changes in traffic cases, including dropping a drunken driving charge against a former county executive’s son.
