On April 14, 2022 (approx. 6:53 PM), Westfield Police stop a 2017 silver Ford Expedition after multiple reports of erratic driving near Prospect St & E Broad St, Westfield, NJ. The driver—Kathleen Anne Murphy (48)—initially denies drinking, then says “one drink,” later admitting “two glasses of wine” while grieving her mother’s death. Officers keep the scene discreet and run the full Standardized Field Sobriety Tests: Alphabet (C→W): stops around “P”, can’t complete HGN (pen/eye): head won’t stay still; attempts to disengage Walk-and-Turn (9 steps): steps off line, improper turn; test halted for safety One-Leg Stand (30s): uses arms for balance, foot down, walks toward car mid-test Two witnesses report a rear-end hit-and-run in Fanwood and a knocked-down “mobile no-parking” sign in Westfield; vehicle observed weaving and crossing the double-yellow repeatedly. Based on indicators and tests, Murphy is arrested at ~7:18 PM for suspected DUI. At HQ, Miranda is read and acknowledged. Alcotest attempts initially fail due to mouth alcohol (both Westfield and Mountainside PD). After a mouth rinse at Mountainside, a valid sample is obtained: BAC = 0.16% (New Jersey limit 0.08%). Murphy receives motor-vehicle summonses for DUI (39:4-50), Reckless (39:4-96), Careless (39:4-97), Leaving the Scene (39:4-129B), Failure to Report (39:4-130), and a parking offense (TC:13-20). She’s released to her husband after a Potential Liability Form is signed and is scheduled for court on April 26, 2022. This video shows the entire interaction—from first contact and de-escalation off the roadway, through every instruction and test, to arrest and station processing—so viewers can understand what officers say/do and why. Station: Miranda acknowledged; Alcotest attempts; valid 0.16% BAC; release plan explained About This Video • Source: Body-Worn Camera (BWC) & MVR per report • Location: Westfield, NJ (assist from Fanwood PD) • Case #: 22-16657 | Date: Apr 14, 2022 • Redactions may apply to comply with law/policy. • Fanwood incident noted separately (Case # 2022-045190, 2022-045201).
