Around 7:57 PM on October 4, 2025, officers with the Hanover Township Police Department were dispatched to the scene of a motor vehicle crash on Park Avenue near the intersection of Ford Hill Road. Patrolman Brian Morrisroe arrived on scene around 8:00 PM and made contact noticed that a black 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLA had crashed into a silver 2016 Mazda. The driver of the Mercedes-Benz was identified as 23-year-old Alysha Bailey, and she is also the daughter of former Paterson Police Lieutenant Troy Bailey. She presented the officer with her PBA gold card, and repeatedly asked to speak with her father. Based on the officers' suspicion of impairment, Alysha was asked to perform field sobriety exercises. Her poor performance on the field sobriety exercises confirmed the officers' suspicion of impairment, and she was placed under arrest for operating under the influence. A search of her vehicle incident to arrest yielded multiple open containers. The Standard Statement for Motor Vehicle Operators was read to her in the backseat of the patrol car, but she refused to submit to a breath test. Patrolman Morrisroe transported Alysha to the Hanover Township Police Department for further processing. After the officers finished processing Alysha, she was eventually released pending her court appearance. Patrolman Morrisroe issued the Alysha the following citations: -Operating under the influence (39:-50) -Consent to take samples of breath (39:4-50.2) -Refusal to submit to chemical test (39:4-50.4A) -Reckless driving (39:4-96) -Careless driving (39:4-97) -Traffic on marked lanes (39:4-88B) -Open container (39:4-51B) On January 9, 2026, Alysha pleaded guilty to operating under the influence. As a result of her conviction, Alysha had to use an ignition interlock device or 3 months, spend 12 hours at an intoxicated driver resource center, and pay a total of $640 in fines. The other 6 citations were dismissed as part of a plea agreement. ---------------------------------------------- Please LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and consider supporting this channel (email us for more information).

(P.L. 2024, c.16). Defendants are considered innocent until proven guilty. The New Jersey Supreme Court has previously affirmed in Salzano v. 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. The summary of events was based on records that are “open to public view through open access to public records” as defined in the Salzano case. In Ramos v. Flowers, 429 N.J. Super. 13, the Appellate Division of the Superior Court has also affirmed the right to film law enforcement interactions.
