DWI Arrest: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0zAayzDar4 Around 7:43 AM on October 11, 2022, Officer John Gales, Corporal Harry Russo, Sergeant Kenneth Kuzicki, and Corporal Stephen Rovetto with the Vernon Township Police Department were dispatched to the residence of Gabriella Colon in response to her 911 call. She initially called asking someone to come, and then hung up. On the first callback, she stated “it was a prank.” On the second call back, she said “stop calling me, I’m busy” and hung up again. When Police arrived at her residence, she told them that she had just woken up, but they knew she was lying because her truck was warm. After they inquired about what happened, she closed the door. The officers initially left the scene before inquiring about what happened at the entrance gate. After finishing their investigation, they returned to her residence later and placed her under arrest for calling 911 without needing 911 service in violation of 2C:33-3E. Officer Gales transported her to the Vernon Township Police Department, where she was photographed and finger printed. Based on her prior history, it was determined that she would be transported to jail, and she was eventually transported to the Morris County Correctional Facility. --------------------------------------------------------------- Please LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and consider supporting this channel (email us for more information). Donations will be used to acquire more public footage related to law enforcement activities. Our content is educational and in compliance with YouTube's Fair Use Policy because we edit several long clips into a concise story. This is similar to other law enforcement channels on YouTube. All videos and case documents were obtained pursuant to the New Jersey Open Public Records Act, N.J.S.A. 47:1A-1 et seq. (P.L. 2001, c. 404). 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.
