5:17Now PlayingHer SECOND DWI Arrest
Her speeding ticket
Her texting and driving
Around 12:58 AM on January 23, 2021, Patrolman Zachary Goess of the Evesham Township Police Department observed a 2015 BMW speeding and swerving between lanes on Evesboro-Medford Road near Lancaster Drive. He proceeded to stop the vehicle, which was being driven by 25-year-old Angelique Pappas. He asked her where she was coming from, and she told him that she was heading over to her friend’s house after she completed her shift as a bartender.
Patrolman Goess subsequently told Angelique that she was speeding and swerving between lanes, and asked her if she had anything to drink. Angelique denied having anything to drink, and Patrolman Goess later got one additional confirmation from her denying any alcohol consumption. He proceeded to his patrol car to run her information and informed dispatch that no backup was needed. After running her license through the system, he issued her 2 citations for speeding 61 MPH in a 45 MPH zone (39:4-98) and traffic on marked lanes (39:4-88).
This traffic stop occurred on January 23, 2021 and Angelique was allowed to drive away with 2 traffic citations. However, Angelique would later be arrested for 2 separate DWIs. Those DWI arrests occurred on June 19, 2021 in Margate, New Jersey and August 7, 2022 in Evesham Township, New Jersey. This raises an important question: How many times did Angelique get away with driving drunk before she eventually got caught…?

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.
