Cantonment Man, His Girlfriend Charged After Rolling Altercation
November 18, 2021
A Cantonment man and his girlfriend were both arrested on multiple charges after an altercation inside a moving vehicle on an Escambia County Roadway.
Jeffrey Joseph Porter, 43, and Ella Nicole Nichelson, 32, were fighting inside a vehicle in the area of Blue Angel Parkway and Lillian Highway and were swerving all over the road, according to the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office.
Porter took Nichelson’s phone during the altercation and pulled her back inside the vehicle against her will, according to an arrest report.
After conducting a traffic stop on the vehicle, deputies reported finding a marijuana in the vehicle, along with a bag of marijuana and a glass smoking pipe in Nichelson’s purse, the report continues. When Nichelson and her personal property were searched at the jail, a corrections officer found a substance that test positive for methamphetamine and more marijuana. They also found unknown white and grey powders that will be analyzed by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.
Porter was charged with driving with a suspended license, petit theft, and false imprisonment. He was released on an $8,000 bond.
Nichelson was charged with two counts of smuggling contraband into a detention facility, possession of a control substance without a prescription and possession of marijuana. She remained in the Escambia County Jail with bond set at $8,000.

Sorry Lauren, I have no sympathy for a druggy who CHOSE that life and I think your hatred (you said it) for “people like me” doesn’t give you much credibility to talk about what God thinks either. My own sister WAS an addict. Of course, she’s not anymore because she’s in Heaven now. She chose to do drugs EVERY TIME while we raised her beautiful children. She was recovered many times but you have to WANT to permanently recover, be strong (stop the hate) and of course, be faithful to yourself, family and God. If people are weak enough that they turn their backs on those things I just mentioned then their problem stems from a lot more than the drug(s). I do wish you the very best and that is for sure.
addiction is illness. Some from injuries, some from painful secrets, painful past, painful childhoods, bad realtionships, marriages, loss of loved ones, no one is exempt. Judge when you are yourself free of any sin. Now maybe they will be in “the system” with supervision, and rules to stay out of jail. Now if you wasnt to say anything about anyone let it be words to Jesus to help this broken world. The one we are in where no sinner is any above the next sinner. by the way we ALL are. Pray people. for them, yourself, your own families and us all. Then maybe we can be better as a whole. love is the greatest commandment of all.
I disagree. They searched the purse during the initial stop (finding the pipe and marijuana). I’m sure they didn’t give the purse back to her. But the article also doesn’t specify what “personal property” was searched at the jail. Maybe she had it in her sock. lol But if it was in her purse and they overlooked it…reaching.
It’s not reaching to charge someone with smuggling contraband when you are asked 1x at arresting time and 1x more in the jail if you are in possession of contraband. Smuggling is a legit charge given when someone brings illegal contraband into a facility. She would have done better to answer yes the first time they asked and get rid of the contraband. That’s fair.
I have known Ella ever since she was in middle school with my daughter. She is the poster child for the opioid epidemic in this country. She is a wonderful person deep down. Unfortunately, some people can’t seem to break free of it. She deserves better. Her kids deserve better.
Sometimes the addiction comes from a legit doctor.
My Cousin was a Marine serving in Vietnam and became an addict after being shot.
I know a young lady who twisted the ankle while cheerleading and became an addict.
You never know when it can happen to a loved one.
Keep an eye out for Ms.Karma
shan…probably not. That usually occurs when LEOs ask if they anything illegal on them and they lie. They probably found the drugs when a female performed a search.
Seems fair to put these two into the same jail cell and leave them alone, one-on-one until they have worked out their differences.
If folks wouldn’t TAKE drugs they WOULDN’T become addicted….just saying. Choices have consequences.
Lauren,
Life is about choices. When someone chooses to take a drug and becomes addicted, why am I supposed to feel sympathy for their choice? No one is saying addiction isn’t real. They chose to take them and are now addicts.
“…two counts of smuggling contraband into a detention facility”
I’m assuming this is in reference of the drugs in her purse that they search when they got to the facility. I think those charges are reeeeeaaaaching.
They look much older than they are!!!!!!
And Susie before you call someone a loser for having an addiction that could have been you if you went down a different path people don’t wake up and say I’m going to become a junkie today I’m in recovery and I’m clean and sober and I hate people like you that think you’re better than her if you have never been in addiction then you can not speak about it cuz you have no idea how it goes!!! How about having some compassion for people rather than a judgmental attitude… God is the only one that has the authority to judge anyone that is what is wrong with this world nobody has any empathy for others and it is truly sad… I hope you never do have to experience addiction because it’s hell
I know Ella she was doing so good I hate that she relapsed she is a good person when she is clean and sober!!!
I hope she takes a good long look at her mugshot before she does meth again. Losers.
They seem really happy…
I m wondering if they ever done any drugs lately!!!!
