Woman Arrested for DWI after Driving the Wrong Way and Speeding

Around 11:14 PM on October 20, 2023, Patrolman Matthew Zibrin with the Shrewsbury Police Department observed a 2004 Toyota speeding 60 MPH in a 35 MPH zone, driving on the wrong side of the road, and driving recklessly on Broad Street in the vicinity of Silverbrook Road. Patrolman Zibrin activated his emergency lights initiated a vehicle stop. After the driver pulled over, he proceeded to make contact with the driver, who was identified as 30-year-old Emelyn Robles. Patrolman Zibrin told her that she was speeding and driving on the wrong side of the road before asking her where she was coming from. Emelyn told the officer that she was coming from The Butcher’s Block, a restaurant in Long Branch. He asked Emelyn if she had anything to drink, and she admitted to having alcohol before driving. Based on his suspicion of impairment, Patrolman Zibrin asked Emelyn to exit the vehicle and perform field sobriety exercises. Patrolman Zibrin started with the Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus (HGN) test, and he also checked for vertical nystagmus. The second field sobriety exercise was the Walk and Turn test. During the Walk and Turn test, Emelyn failed to touch heel-to-toe on each step and turned improperly. The last field sobriety exercise was the One Leg Stand test. During this exercise, Emelyn displayed a lack of balance and failed to raise her foot in the proper fashion. Based on her erratic driving, her admission to consuming alcohol, and her inability to adequately complete the field sobriety exercises, Patrolman Zibrin placed Emelyn under arrest for driving under the influence. A search of her vehicle revealed an open container of alcohol. Her vehicle was impounded for a mandatory 12-hour hold under John’s Law and Emelyn was transported to the Shrewsbury Police Department for further processing. At police HQ, the Standard Statement for Motor Vehicle Operators was read to Emelyn and she refused to submit breath samples. Patrolman Zibrin issued her the following summonses: Operating under the influence, refusal to submit to chemical test, speeding 25-29 MPH, reckless driving, careless driving, traffic on marked lanes, and open container of alcohol Court records indicate that on February 15, 2023, Emelyn pleaded guilty to operating under the influence. As a result of her guilty plea, she was required to use an ignition interlock device for 3 months, spend 12 hours at an intoxicated driver resource center, and pay a total of $690 in fines. She pleaded “not guilty” to refusal to submit to chemical test, and she was found “not guilty” on that charge. The other 5 tickets for speeding, reckless driving, careless driving, traffic on marked lanes, and open container of alcohol were dismissed based on prosecutorial discretion. --------------------------------------------------------------- Please LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and consider supporting this channel (email us for more information).

North Jersey Media Group, 993 A.2d 778 (2010) that “The fair-report privilege reflects the judgment that the need, in a self-governing society, for free-flowing information about matters of public interest outweighs concerns over the uncompensated injury to a person's reputation.” This video advances a compelling public interest.
