Man jailed over pot brownie

EAST STROUDSBURG — A man has been jailed on assault and drug charges for allegedly giving a co-worker a brownie made with marijuana, which the woman’s teen son then ate.

Police say the boy, 15, has autism and had to be taken to the hospital after he unwittingly ingested the drugs.

Corey Emery, 32, of East Stroudsburg was arrested Friday and remained in the Monroe County jail Monday on charges including aggravated assault and drug delivery.

Online court records show the incident occurred July 6. Police say Emery didn’t tell the woman there was pot in the treat.
