Gouverneur female arrested for aggravated DWI

On September 9, 2025, members of the New York State Police arrested Wendy M. Shepherd, age 38, from Gouverneur, NY, for aggravated driving while intoxicated.

At approximately 11:14 p.m. on the same day, Troopers observed a gray 2010 Ford traveling south on State Route 58 in the Town of Gouverneur, where it violated a vehicle and traffic law. The Troopers initiated a traffic stop and interviewed the driver, identified as Shepherd. During the conversation, she exhibited signs of impairment. The Troopers administered Standardized Field Sobriety Tests (SFSTs), which Shepherd failed.

She was subsequently arrested and transported to SP Gouverneur, where she provided a positive breath sample indicating a blood alcohol content (BAC) of 0.19%. She was released with an appearance ticket, which is returnable to the Town of Gouverneur Court for a later date in October.
