A Montgomery County woman who was arrested for shoplifting and made headlines after deputies found her kissing her brother through the jail cell bars has been rearrested on a charge of choking her husband.

Charlene Marie Ellet, 24, of Porter, is in the Montgomery County Jail on a $50,000 bond after being arrested March 3.

Deputies were called to the motel where she and her husband were staying in the 24000 block of U.S. 59, said Lt. Brady Fitzgerald, spokesman for the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office.

"Apparently there was a dispute over a cellular phone at the location and the male reported that the female assaulted him," Fitzgerald said. "She said he assaulted her, but deputies advised that his injuries were consistent with his report."

The man, whose name was not released, had scratches and redness on his neck and had a hard time talking due to swelling around his throat, Fitzgerald said.

"She reportedly had put him in a choke hold," the spokesman said.

Ellet and her 26-year-old brother, Cameron D. Beck, whose address was also listed as the motel on U.S. 59, were arrested Feb. 28 on various charges, according to online records.

Beck was charged with possession of a controlled substance and prohibited sexual conduct and on Wednesday remained in jail on a total of $8,000 bond.

Ellet, charged with prohibited sexual conduct and shoplifting, was released on bond March 1.

According to the Montgomery County Police Reporter, she had been detained Feb. 28 at the Wal-mart store in Porter and when her brother came to meet her, deputies discovered drug-related items in his car. Ellet admitted they had both smoked methamphetamine, the publication said.

Deputies from Montgomery County Precinct 4 Constable's Office put the two in adjoining cells and found them kissing each other on the lips, according to the Police Reporter.

Ellet, the mother of 2-year-old twin girls, told deputies she and her brother had been involved in a sexual relationship since November. Upon their arrest, the children were released to Ellet's sister, the Police Reporter stated.
