Troopergate cop books Worcester prosecutor on OUI charge

Trooper Ryan Sceviour helped book Worcester Assistant District Attorney John A. O’Leary Monday night after his arrest for allegedly driving drunk with his 13-year-old daughter in the car.

O’Leary, 48, of Bolton, was suspended without pay yesterday after pleading not guilty in Westboro District Court to charges including operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol, child endangerment while operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol, and resisting arrest.
