Connecticut State Rep. Quentin Williams Killed While Driving Home from Governor's Inaugural Ball

Story by Valerie Nome • 1h ago

 

Connecticut state Rep. Quentin "Q" Williams was killed early Thursday morning in a head-on, wrong-way crash on his way home from Gov. Ned Lamont's inaugural ball.

 

Williams, a Democrat, was the first African American to represent Middletown in the Connecticut General Assembly.

 

He is remembered for his optimism.

 

"I met Q before he became a state legislator when he was an advocate for a local school in Stamford, and I can only think of one word to describe him—hopeful," Connecticut Attorney General William Tong said in a statement. "Q was always brimming with optimism and possibility. He had a spirit that was relentlessly positive and aspirational. We need his light more than ever, and that's why it is so hard."
