Bodycam footage from the DUI arrest on March 17 of Lumberton Township, New Jersey Mayor Gina LaPlaca reveals the Democrat stumbling and failing a field sobriety test outside her residence.

“No, I’m good,” she first tells an arresting officer when he asked if she had anything to drink. 

About a minute later, she admitted to drinking alcohol when asked a second time. 

Following the arrest, LaPlaca has faced numerous calls for her resignation, as it was alleged she was driving under the influence with her young son in the vehicle.

Her husband, Jason Carty, took to Facebook on March 18 to say that LaPlaca struggles with addiction and is getting help. 

“Millions of Americans grapple with addiction and often don’t seek help. Gina LaPlaca is a person who has faced this struggle and is now receiving the assistance she requires,” he stated.

“I ask that everyone keep her in their thoughts as she moves forward on her road to recovery. Please ignore the exaggerated political hyperbole and keep in mind her passion for helping others. This should not erase all the things she has accomplished for our community.”

She is due back in court on April 28.
