So……who was driving the wrong way, him, or another driver? Why are they not giving details of the crash?
The other driver. I’m sure we’ll get more details over the next few days.
May he rest in peace. My condolences to his loved ones and everyone his life has touched.🙏
Wow, Rest In Power Rep. Quentin Williams. Heavenly Father times like this are so hard to understand. My deepest condolences to the family, friends, and community that Mr. Williams so greatly loved, appreciated, and fought for. My Dear Brother Job Well Done!

I wanted to hear about accident. Was it a TRUE ACCIDENT? WHAT ABOUT WRONG WAY DRIVER?. TO MANY PEOPLE END UP KILLED SEEMS THE TIMING OF ACCIDENT IS SUSPICIOUS. BE BLESSED. I PRAY GOD FINDS YOUR TRUTH. SOUNDS LIKE YOUR A GREAT ADVOCATE FOR THE PEOPLE 🗽⚖️🇱🇷
Deleted my post!! That man was killed.
This is completely heartbreaking. I am really hoping foul play was not involved. My prayers for his family.
This.
😢🕊🙏
Set up
Wow this is sad…so was the other driver drunk? Or what happened?
Elderly people get confused sometimes. Mandatory yearly driving tests might help.
Tragedy for Connecticut, prayers for his family, friends and coworkers
We never know when and how we’re going to leave this earth. May God help have mercy upon us.
100% correct. Get close to The Most High and accept that Christ died for our eternal salvation. We only have a chance to do this while we’re alive on earth. Once our time is up, it will be too late.
So sad 🙁
They killed him!!! 😤🤬
RIP 🇬🇧 UK
? Wrong way crash???
Drunk drivers and the elderly sometimes mistake off ramps for on ramps.
Question everything about this case.
@The Tough Group Murder by suicide driver or tragic accident. Which seems most likely?
@David Assassination should be on that list also.
@T McBride How is that different than what I said? Unless you think a third party used the wrong-way driver as a weapon, perhaps by threatening his family?
what crazy timing Rest In Peace Q 🕊️
Well, when you vote to release all the criminals…….. karma?
A lil too young to die I feel for his family. But he was a democrat so maybe it’s a karma thing. It’s kind of like a 39 year old abortion he would have probably been ok with that R.I.P.
I’m so sorry to hear this tragic news. I’m from Kentucky but just hearing this Breaks my heart. Blessing to all his family, friends.
You don’t even have to listen to everyone saying how great he was you can see it with that smile!! His smile is so beautiful and genuine!! I’m so sorry for this horrible tragic loss!!! My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends and colleagues! He definitely seemed like he was special!
Condolences to the family for their loss. What a tragedy!
R.I.P.🙏
Why are they smiling?
Another democrat bat gets his wings
That’s awful.
How tragic!!!
Condolences to his family, prayers for Rip😢
Oh how awful. My condolences to his friends and family
Elderly people get confused sometimes. Mandatory yearly driving tests might help. Not much you can do with drunk drivers.
This is why, when I’m driving, if I see someone’s car all over the road I don’t hesitate to call 911. I’ve called in a suspected drunk driver about 3x over the last 15 years or so. When we see something we should all do it to protect the innocent people of our communities. R.I.P Q….
I don’t trust this, automatically, as an accident.
Don’t be a conspiracy theorist now.
So sad may he RIP.
👃🏼🐟
So from what I understand, he wasn’t even representative for a day before dying in a wrong-way crash. I may have got it wrong, but that’s what I heard. Rest in peace Quentin Williams✌️.
Edit: I now realize that he wasn’t even representative, he was just a Connecticut lawyer who didn’t even last a day into his third term. Although he had 2 terms prior to his wrongful demise. Again, rest easy Williams✌️.
Black panther rise
Who are these people who post thumbs up? This is sad and makes me heartbroken for the family of this young man.
😢💔
He joins Senator WellStone , MN, and Senator Mel Caranahan, MO, died in fiery crashes also, all for Labor. 🫂🇺🇲
What a tragic loss for our entire country💔
RIP Q❤
Prayers to family and friends ❤️🙏🏼❤️
He was indeed a great man. Very tragic news. He will be missed. RIP Q….
Now he can stand before God, and explain to him why he was part of a group that supported homosexuality, the rest of the alphabet mafia, baby killing, grooming children. and racist domestic terrorist group BLM.
He was a demonrat, no loss to America and in fact America is slightly better now.
Sucks that he died …..but he was a Democrat so I’m not going to lose sleep over this
So sad 🙁
This was no accident
Why do great one’s leave us so early?
😭 God comfort his family.
This is the saddest news I’ve heard in a while, my condolences to his friends and family.💔
So sad. Sending my deepest condolences to all who knew him and his family
Oh my goodness, god rest his soul! I am so sorry to his family and the community that applauded his dedication!
If he was a black republican this wouldn’t even have made the news.
They would’ve killed him before he won. All Democrats are terrorists.
This seems like a staged attack. ALL fatal car collisions due to wrong way driving make up 1% of all fatal crashes. Route 9 lanes are completely separated between Hartford and Middletown.
That timing though??? Hella sus. Ernest Lundeen was a congressman with a suspicious death as well.
Big time.sus
Sounds like a hit
My prayers for our Heavenly Father to surround the family, friends, and community of Quentin in His loving peace and comfort. 🙏❤️
How sad
My deepest condolences and prayers to the family, friends, and colleagues 🙏🏼🕊️
My heart breaks 💔 for him and his family and those who loved him
This story rips your heart out. May is soul rest in peace
So sad… condolences to his family.
Horrible news, America has lost a 39 year old man with great potential, Quentin Williams. My condolences to his family and friends, may he rest in peace.
My deepest condolences to his family and friends. R.i.p. brotha
What a crazy coincidence
Who is he
They just told you. Did you not watch the story ?
💔
This is so sad and tragic RIP Quentin Williams.
CT is so broken they can’t even ensure the safety of the people in government, everyone else should expect even less protection from this feckless bunch of globalist trash like Lamont and his goons. This is why I left that corrupt cesspool of tyranny.
are you 12 years old? Touch grass.
So heartbreaking 💔💔💔
Prayers for his family and friends 🙏🙏🙏
No good person is allowed to rule
Terribly sad, sad news. He spread optimism. His efforts will flourish.
😔🙏 My condolences to his family.
Condolences to his family and loved ones. So many young persons are dying now in these times. Just sad, may he rest in peace.
It’s so unfair. Although I’m from Rye New York just below Greenwich Connecticut I love the state of Connecticut it has lost someone whose light was a shining beacon.
This is sad!
May Allah Almighty bless him and grant him Jannah
I am so sorry for your loss
May his spirit live on 🙏.
Rest in Peace, Quentin Williams.
Strange this sure he wasn’t purposely taken out
What did he not swear his oath to the devil so you Dems had him killed?
Wow! I’m so sorry.
May Allah keep and protect his soul
I love how they say:. “..first African American from THE CITY….”.. (UM) Hello!!!! WHAT city?!?! Bad journalism…
Deepest sympathies to His family and friends and political colleagues
RIP
Somebody was drunk
I never know to like or dislike these videos🥺
Prayers to all the family and friends may God keep you during this difficult time.
This had to be a set up.. just saying
He looks like he’s ALWAYS cheesing. Lol. I know people like that and they always have a way of making ANY and EVERYONE around them feel welcome and good about themselves and others. I feel for all those affected by his loss because you can tell that anyone who knew him, even for 2 minutes, is going to be affected. But his spirit will live on through them
God bless❤
We lost a real brother here.
RIP Representative Quentin Williams! 😢😢
How terribly heartbreaking. My thoughts go out to all his family and friends.
Set up.
Wow, sorry. Guess it wasn’t to be.
😢
He supported equity, darn what a loss .I guess there’s one less person to try and guilt me out of my life’s work to give it to someone who’s never worked a day in their life.To bad equality isn’t enough for pathetic loser’s to achieve any type of success, no let’s vilify those who get up at 4am to support themselves and create laws to redistribute their wealth to the people they’ve been taxed to support their entire lives.
This is incredibly sad. May you Continue On In Paradise, Q❤️💜
