In a bizarre late-night encounter, an NJ OnlyFans model DWI arrest began with officers finding the suspect hiding in her own back seat.
The incident occurred in Leonia, New Jersey, and quickly escalated from a suspicious vehicle stop into a full DWI investigation. Official reports identify the driver as Natalie E. Aguado, a 29-year-old resident of Oakland, NJ. The bodycam footage captures a roller coaster of events, ranging from failed sobriety tests to emotional confessions about mental health and her career on OnlyFans.

Full Story: How the Incident Unfolded
The incident began shortly after 1:20 AM on May 31, 2022. Leonia Police officers spotted a black 2004 Jeep Liberty driving erratically near Palisade Avenue and Romaine Place. According to the police report, the vehicle was observed backing up the street with its headlights off.
The Switch: Hiding in the Back Seat
When officers approached the vehicle, they noticed something unusual. The driver’s seat was empty. Natalie Aguado was sitting in the back seat of the car.
Officer Petry immediately asked, “How come you went into the backseat?”.
Aguado’s explanation was confusing. She claimed she moved to the back because she “usually don’t drive with my license in my back”. However, the officer pointed out that her bag was actually in the front seat.
The police had already watched her drive to the end of the street, back up, turn off her lights, and climb into the back. The “suspicious auto” call quickly turned into a DWI investigation.
Field Sobriety Tests: “I Don’t Walk Well Like This”
Officers asked Aguado to exit the vehicle to perform Standardized Field Sobriety Tests (SFSTs). The footage shows her struggling to follow instructions.
During the “Walk and Turn” test, the officer instructed her to walk in a straight line, touching heel to toe. Aguado struggled to maintain the starting position and began the test before being told to start.
When the officer pointed out she wasn’t touching her heel to her toe, she replied, “I don’t walk well like this”. After failing to complete the tests satisfactorily, she was placed under arrest for DWI.
The OnlyFans Admission
While being processed at headquarters, officers asked Aguado for her occupation for the arrest report.
“I do sex work,” she stated, clarifying, “OnlyFans”.
When the officer asked if she meant “Only Fans Website,” she replied, “It’s like Instagram… but people pay to see me naked”. The police report officially lists her employer as “ONLY FANS WEBSITE” and her occupation as “ENTERTAINER”.
“I Have an Alcohol Problem”
The mood shifted later in the video. Aguado opened up to the officers about her personal struggles. She admitted to drinking “4 or 5” Coronas earlier that day.
“I have an alcohol problem,” she confessed to the officer. She explained that she had been spiraling since the loss of her best friend a year prior. The officer listened and encouraged her to use this arrest as a “wake up call”.

Police charged Aguado with multiple offenses related to the incident. Below is a breakdown of the citations issued.

Legal Analysis: Was the NJ OnlyFans Model DWI Arrest Justified?
Fourth Amendment Check
For a traffic stop to be legal under the Fourth Amendment, police must have “reasonable suspicion” that a crime or traffic violation has occurred. In this case, the police report and transcript indicate clear violations prior to the stop.
Officers observed the vehicle driving without headlights and backing up improperly in the street. These are valid traffic infractions (NJ Statute 39:3-47a and 39:4-127). This gave officers the legal right to approach the vehicle.
Probable Cause for Arrest
Once the stop was initiated, the “switch” to the back seat provided significant evidence of consciousness of guilt. Combined with the admissions of drinking (“Two shots,” later changed to “4 or 5” beers) and the performance on the Field Sobriety Tests, the officers likely had ample “probable cause” to arrest for DWI.

5 FAQs in English that are indirectly connected to the charges and specific circumstances
Can I get a DWI if I am found sleeping in the back seat?
Yes, it is possible. In many states, including New Jersey, you can be charged with DWI if the police can prove you had “intent to operate” the vehicle or had recently driven it. If the keys are within reach or the engine is warm—or if witnesses (or police) saw the vehicle moving before you climbed into the back—you can still be arrested and convicted. Hiding in the back seat does not automatically protect you from a DWI charge.
Does a DWI arrest prevent you from moving to countries like Australia?
It can be a major obstacle. Countries like Australia and Canada have very strict character requirements for visas. A criminal record, including a DWI conviction, can lead to a visa application being denied or delayed. While it is not an automatic ban in every single case, immigration officials will scrutinize the applicant’s character, and significant alcohol-related offenses can disqualify someone from obtaining a work or travel visa.
Will a DWI conviction ruin a career in Criminal Justice or the CIA?
A DWI can severely impact career prospects in law enforcement or federal intelligence. Agencies like the CIA require high-level security clearances. While a single misdemeanor might not be an automatic disqualifier forever, it raises “red flags” regarding judgment, reliability, and susceptibility to blackmail or coercion. A pattern of alcohol abuse or recent arrests makes it very difficult to pass the background checks required for these jobs.
Why do police keep the car for 12 hours after a DWI arrest in NJ?
This is due to “John’s Law” in New Jersey. The law mandates that police must impound the vehicle of a person arrested for DWI for a minimum of 12 hours. The intent is to prevent the intoxicated driver from returning to their car and driving again while still under the influence. The arrestee also cannot be released from custody until they are sober or a responsible sober adult signs for them.
Do I have to tell the police my real employer during booking?
Generally, you are asked for your employment information for administrative purposes (bail, release on own recognizance factors, etc.). While you usually have the right to remain silent, lying to a police officer can sometimes lead to additional charges (like hindering an investigation or unsworn falsification). However, listing “Unemployed” or “Self-Employed” is common if someone does not wish to name a specific company, provided they are not actively deceiving the police to hide a crime.
Conclusion & Current Status
Natalie Aguado was processed and released to a responsible party later that morning. Her vehicle was impounded for the mandatory 12-hour hold required by New Jersey law (John’s Law).
She was summoned to appear at the Leonia Municipal Court on June 14, 2022, to answer to the charges. During her conversation with officers, she mentioned plans to move to Australia for a work visa, hoping to leave her troubles behind.
