Biography

Martin Peter Quigley, an Irish national from Dundalk, was arrested July 12, 1989 in the Boston weapons-export prosecution. A jury convicted him June 18, 1990; Judge A. David Mazzone sentenced him August 20, 1990. The appellate opinion records concurrent terms of sixty, thirty-six and ninety-six months. Contemporary sources distinguish his earlier pretrial detention from the sentencing-era custody. The official federal locator for register 41064-066 reports that he was no longer in BOP custody as of January 15, 1997; that endpoint does not itself establish deportation, completion of supervision, or freedom from another jurisdiction's custody.

Arrest, verdict, sentence and federal endpoint distinguished

Contemporary UPI reporting dates Quigley's arrest July 12, 1989. The August 3 bail report establishes prior detention but not exact admission or discharge. Those unknown endpoints are not replaced with the hearing date.

The original Constitutional Defense Fund flyer distinguishes June 18, 1990 verdict from August 20 sentencing and reports immediate jailing after refusal of appeal bail. The appellate opinion, footnote 23, records concurrent 60-, 36- and 96-month terms, not their sum. Existing overlapping rows now separate the documented 1989 arrest/pretrial episode from later sentence-era custody, without counting the same arrest twice.

A read-only, user-authorized official federal inmate-locator lookup on October 12, 2026 returned MARTIN PETER QUIGLEY, register 41064-066, not in BOP custody as of January 15, 1997. The independently documented middle name and existing register number bridge the result to this case. This supersedes the unsupported January 14 day. The 1996 Irish DFA file anticipated a December release while documenting Allenwood custody; that forecast was not actual discharge. No precise deportation day or unsupported Ashland placement is inferred. Existing identified portrait retained.

Cases

Charges: Boston weapons-export prosecution — initial 1989 arrest and pretrial detention
Arrested: Jul 12, 1989
Sentence: Arrest July 12, 1989 according to contemporary UPI reporting. The August 3 report documents existing pretrial custody and refusal of bail but does not establish the precise first jail admission or pretrial discharge. Its conflicting June arrest wording is not preferred over the July 12 arrest report and appellate chronology. This row describes the earlier detention, not a second substantive offense. Unsupported August 19, 1990 sentencing/admission, January 14, 1997 release and Ashland placement are removed; later sentence-era custody belongs to the separate linked row.
Federal Correctional Institution
Charges: Conspiracy to develop / export a missile system; conspiracy to destroy property in a foreign country (Boston federal trial 1990)
Sentenced: Aug 20, 1990
Incarcerated: Aug 20, 1990
Released: Jan 15, 1997
Sentence: Concurrent sixty-month, thirty-six-month and ninety-six-month terms, as recorded in appellate footnote 23. The original Constitutional Defense Fund flyer dates sentencing August 20, 1990 and reports immediate jailing after appeal bail was refused. August 20 is the documented sentence-era custody anchor, not proof that initial pretrial custody first began then or that all prior custody was continuous. BOP register 41064-066 reports Not in BOP Custody as of January 15, 1997. The federal endpoint is not proof of deportation or the end of supervision. Any elapsed duration calculated for this row excludes unresolved earlier pretrial detention.
