SNOW HILL — A local man, sentenced to six years in prison for his role in the death of a Pennsylvania man in Ocean City in August 2014, was sent back to jail for six more months last week for a probation violation.
In January 2015, Caleb Edwin-Earl Ochse, now 30, of Ocean City, pleaded guilty to affray, a common law charge essentially indicating he was guilty of participating in a fight in a public place, and had all but 18 months of his six-year sentence suspended. Ochse had been charged with manslaughter for his role in a fight on a downtown street that ultimately led to the death of Justin Cancelliere, 37, of North Whitehall, Pa. in 2014.
Ochse pleaded guilty to affray as part of a plea agreement and was sentenced to six years with all but 18 months suspended. Ochse served the sentence and was placed on supervised probation for two years which included routine drug testing. Ochse recently tested positive for a controlled dangerous substance (CDS), which violated the terms of his probation. As a result, the original case against him was reopened. Following a violation of probation hearing last Friday, Ochse was sentenced to another six months in jail.

How sad that a dead mans life is worth 6 years and 6 months only...
Ochse is a coward and only fights people to intoxicated to defend themselves.
Purrr trash. Take him out back and shoot him.
Nope. Obviously the three morons above did not see the video or attend the trial. A large group of big guys, drinking all day and night, continually picked a fight over a long period of time with a local guy who showed lots of patience before defending himself. The guys were too stupid and drunk to care for their buddy, and he died. If the local guy violated his probation, so be it and let him face the consequences. The six or seven punks who started it and let their friend die got off scot-free.
