Sustained Charge: Professional Conduct 5.1; Standard of Conduct 5.2.1 Professional Conduct 5.1; Cooperation 5.2.2 Untruthfulness A Conviction of Driving while intoxicated
Description: On August 1, 2021 Lt. Gregory Martin was found while off-duty by the Teaneck Police Department asleep in his parked and running vehicle. He was subsequently arrested and charged for Driving Under the influence. Lt. Martin refused to participate in any field sobriety test and refused to participate in the submission of breath samples. While being processed, Lt. Martin bent over, lowered his head, and physically accelerated himself into a laundry machine. As a result, Lt. Martin became unresponsive, and Teaneck Ambulance Corps was contacted to respond. While rendering aid, Lt. Martin advised the TVAC officers that Teaneck Police "smashed" his head into the wall. This was later disproven by surveillance footage viewed during an investigation. On July 11,2022, Lt. Martin pled guilty to DWI. On December 22.2022 an agreement was met between Lt. Martin and the City of Englewood which resulted in separation from employment.
