Elliott Returns To Jail After Guilty Plea To Assault

SNOW HILL -- A former drug “kingpin”, who returned to Worcester County in June and was promptly arrested for battling with cops over two decades after being indicted as one of the central figures in a major cocaine distribution ring, pleaded guilty last week in Circuit Court to second-degree assault and was sentenced to 90 days in jail.

Archie Burton Elliott, now 64, whose current address is listed as Myrtle Beach, returned to the local area in June and was promptly arrested and charged with numerous offenses including trespassing and second-degree assault on a police officer during a dispute outside his son’s Berlin residence. On June 25, a Worcester County Sheriff’s Office deputy responded to a residence on Old Ocean City Blvd. to assist the Department of Social Services with an escort in reference to a possible child abuse case.

Upon arrival, the deputy learned one of the residents of the home, identified as Archie Bradford Elliott, had recently had an Emergency Petition filed on his behalf by his father, Archie Burton Elliott. Another Worcester County Sheriff’s Department detective went to District Court in Ocean City to secure the emergency petition when he encountered the elder Elliott, who told the detective he intended to go to his son’s residence in Berlin in reference to the emergency petition, according to the police report.
