Justin Timberlake’s legal troubles over a DUI incident may be over, but don’t expect to see the footage of his arrest. After pleading guilty to driving while impaired, Timberlake’s arrest video has been sealed from public view.
TMZ attempted to obtain the body cam footage from the June 18 arrest by submitting a public records request. However, the Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office denied the request, explaining that both Timberlake’s team and prosecutors had agreed to seal the video, keeping it away from public access.
This mutual decision ensures that the footage remains confidential, only accessible to the legal parties involved. The move is part of an ongoing effort by Timberlake and his legal team to resolve the situation quietly.
Earlier this month, Timberlake appeared in court in Sag Harbor, where he pled guilty to driving while ability impaired, a lesser traffic offense. In addition to a fine, the pop star agreed to perform 25 hours of community service and create a PSA to raise awareness about the dangers of drinking and driving.
During his court appearance, Timberlake admitted his mistake, acknowledging that he fell short of his own standards. He expressed his commitment to using his platform to discourage others from making the same poor decision.
The legal outcome may be settled, but with the video sealed, it looks like the public won’t be getting any more details on the incident.
