Jetfan13 Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 Jets | Ellis arrested for marijuana possession Fri, 05 Dec 2008 04:37:25 -0800 The Associated Press reports New York Jets DE Shaun Ellis was arrested and charged with possession of marijuana, speeding and driving without insurance after getting pulled over Saturday, Nov. 29. Ellis was stopped in Hanover, N.J., according to the Daily Record of Morris County. This is believed to be Ellis' first offense, which means he will not be suspended but will be enrolled in the league's substance abuse program. Ellis will still play in the team's Week 14 game.

Maxman Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 Nice. Maybe he can bring something on the plane to relax a little. BZ Or maybe he won't be so relaxed this weekend and he can start sacking the QB again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMC Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 This happened last Saturday. If he wasn't suspended for the Broncos game, I don't know how he could be suspended for any other game by the Jets because the NFL has no precedent for suspending a player under similar circumstances.

kelticwizard Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 I'd just like to know the circumstances of the cop finding the stuff in his car. I'm sure that when he got pulled over, Ellis didn't just have the "glassine bag" (remember that term, lol) on the passenger seat. Either Ellis was smoking it at 8:30 in the morning and the cop smelled it, or the cop conducted a search of his car merely because of his failure to have a registration card and insurance. Which seems excessive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kelticwizard Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 You don't think that a search of a car because some paperwork was not in order seems a little much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flgreen Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 You don't think that a search of a car because some paperwork was not in order seems a little much? No He didn't have the registration, he couldn't prove it was his car. My youngest son is 25, he has never been arrested. His car has been searched 4 times in 6 weeks.

ECURB Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 No He didn't have the registration, he couldn't prove it was his car. My youngest son is 25, he has never been arrested. His car has been searched 4 times in 6 weeks. Whats the catch? No front license plate? Loud exhaust? Did he Pimp his ride? An officer needs to reasons to search both of which can be derived from the previous experience in the field... For example if you have no front plate and an exhaust... chances are your car will get searched if your young because most young kids who get caught with pot fall into the no plate loud car category.

It might be as simple as a similar car that was reported stolen. But it DOES seem rather excessive. Same cop? Same PD ? If it's either I'd be asking PLENTY of questions. They have to have a reason for pulling him over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
