The sentencing for highway patrol trooper Anthony Piercy is scheduled for Tuesday at 1:00 p.m. Piercy entered a negotiated plea to a misdemeanor charge of negligent boating stemming from the death of 20-year old Brandon Ellingson of Iowa. He was originally charged with involuntary manslaughter after allegedly failing to properly secure a life jacket on Ellingson, who drowned while handcuffed. Tomorrow’s hearing was rescheduled from its original date of September 8.
