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

“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. 

LaPlaca has been blasted with calls to resign in the wake of the arrest, with critics noting that she was allegedly driving drunk with her young son in the car.

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

“Millions of Americans struggle with addiction and never get help. Gina LaPlaca is someone who has struggled, and is now getting the help she needs,” he said. 

“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.
