Justin Timberlake Seeks Court Order to Block Release of 2024 DWI Body Camera Footage

Pop star Justin Timberlake has filed a petition in Suffolk County Supreme Court to block the release of police body camera footage from his June 2024 driving while intoxicated arrest in Sag Harbor, New York. His legal team argues that public disclosure would invade his privacy, reveal sensitive personal details, and cause irreparable harm to his reputation without serving a legitimate public interest. Timberlake previously pleaded guilty to a lesser impaired-driving charge and acknowledged the incident as a mistake. The petition seeks either full withholding or redactions of the video amid pending Freedom of Information Law requests.
