July 12, 2019 – Ellery was initially charged on April 15 with just a single, municipal summons of driving while intoxicated, according to a copy of the summons obtained by NJ Advance Media. The case was then transferred to the Somerset County Prosecutor’s Office, which launched a criminal investigation resulting in an additional charge of possession of heroin.
Robertson said Ellery has pleaded guilty to both offenses and will be entered into the Drug Court program. If Ellery fails to finish the program, he could face up to five years in prison. Ellery will also lose his license for seven months and his job as a police officer, a position he’s held since Jan. 22, 2017.
