URGENT U.P. Breaking News Bulletin – 4-26-18 – 6:20 p.m. ET – 
The ugly truth: Domestic violence cases not only happened daily in the U.P. – but sometimes up to 50 victims a day (3 cases in each of the 15 counties)
Heather R. McEntire

Heather McEntire and John Gray
By Greg Peterson U.P. Breaking News Owner, News Director 906-273-2433
(Marquette County, MI) – There were numerous domestic violence arrests in past 24 hours plus other felonies arrests in Marquette County involving a concealed weapon and even felony drunken driving – and breaking in Escanaba – a woman charged with DV in January calls 911 from a place she is not supposed to be.
As we were about to post this story, a domestic dispute erupted in the city of Escanaba – that shows domestic violence aggressors can be any sex – and sometimes jilted love drives some people to become repeat offenders.
Tumblr media
Heather McEntire and John Gray
43-year-old Heather R. McEntire of Escanaba, MI called 911 just before 5 a.m. ET Thursday morning and claimed she was assaulted by a man she was not supposed to see. During this morning’s melee, McEntire was out on bond for a Jan. 15, 2018 arrest for domestic violence in Delta County.
Tumblr media
John Gray
The victim in that assault – 47-year-old John Robert Gray of Escanaba, MI – told 911 this morning that Heather and her brother attacked him.
As part of McEntire’s pretrial bond, she was ordered to stay away from Gray and not to visit his home.
Heather’s brother 46-year-old Jason Parker McEntire of many addresses in Delta County.
McEntire is also known as Heather Sirois; and she used to live in Bark River, Green Bay and Knoxville, TN.
Gray claimed that the siblings McEntire illegally arrived as his apartment at 416 First Avenue South “came in and assaulted him,” the dispatcher told responding officers.
About 5:30 a.m. today, Heather McEntire and John Gray wre both arrested on several charges including domestic violence – and both are lodged in the Delta County Detention Center.

Marquette Police responded just after 10 p.m. ET Wednesday night to a report of a possible domestic violence situation turned into hit and run. The incident was reported at 700 Homestead St in Marquette, MI. “Responded to a domestic situation that has now turned into a hit and run PDA (property damage accident),” the dispatcher told police headed to the scene not far from Grove Street and the bypass. In the rear parking lot, a witness told 911 dispatchers that “a male and a female were involved in a domestic situation,” the officers were told via radio from HQ. The blonde female ‘got in a white Jeep” and “sped out of the parking lot to get away from the male,” officers were told. The male got into an older red passenger car and “was leaving in a hurry,” a 911 dispatcher to responding officers The male, now a suspect, “apparently struck a black in color car in the parking lot,” he said, adding that due to darkness the exact make and model of the red car was not visible. The red car should “have front and rear damage,” the dispatcher said. The witness told police that the couple was involved in a previous domestic situation about one month ago. On the east side of the apartment building, police found a damaged red Ford Taurus. Its is unclear what became of the investigation.

A Gwinn man was arrested Friday night for a domestic violence incident in which he allegedly used a knife.
This afternoon, the Marquette County Sheriff’s Department has issued a “be on the lookout” (BOLO) for the man allegedly armed with a knife during a domestic incident.
“The subject is wanted for questioning in the a domestic situation where he did (allegedly) use a knife as a threatening tool,” the BOLO stated. That BOLO was canceled tonight when the man was taken into custody.
39-year-old Stephen Wayne Field Jr., of Gwinn, MI was arrested on Friday night, April 20, 2018.
The BOLO was readout about 6 hours earlier to all regional law enforcement during a broadcast to all cars by Negaunee Regional Dispatch.
The BOLO said Field was driving a green 2004 F-150 extended cab pickup truck (rusty truck) for questioning in a domestic violence incident involving a knife
“He is possibly armed with said knife,” the dispatcher said during the BOLO. Field has former addresses listed in Palmer, Negaunee, Ishpeming, and Marquette, MI.
Meanwhile, in an unrelated case, a 17-year-old Marquette County youth was arrested Thursday afternoon for domestic battery – and she registered a .08 on a portable breath test (PBT) that measures alcohol intake. U.P. Breaking News has made an editorial decision not to release the young woman’s name because it was her first offense – and her young age and potential to learn from the experience.
And no arrests were made Thursday night in Delta County, when it was reported a youth had punched his girlfriend in the face.
A third party tipped off police who said the victims that had confided the domestic assault and would deny she was punched if contacted by police. However, police located both the male and female – an apparently decided there was not enough physical evidence or other evidence to warrant an arrest.
These were among numerous domestic violence cases reported since Thursday afternoon across the U.P. including once case that turned into a meth probe and another that led to the arrest of the now ex-Finlandia University Football Coach.

Knife throwing, tire slashing probe in Escanaba leads to domestic violence charge against a Gladstone, MI woman; meanwhile man wanted for aggravated assault/domestic violence in Wisconsin hides out in western U.P. – and was questioned but not booked in Gogebic County today since Oshkosh officials do not want him that badly – another case of good riddance, someone else’s problem.

(Escanaba, MI) – A Delta County woman has been released on bond after her arrest for domestic violence today for allegedly slashing vehicle tires and throwing a knife, while in Gogebic County officers had to kick loose a Superior, WI man despite an outstanding warrant for aggravated assault and domestic violence by Oshkosh, WI officials – who do not seem to want him very badly.
Kassidy Jade Seidl
Police in Escanaba, MI were dispatched to an incident with a knife reported at a mobile home park located at 1401 N. 23rd Street, Lot 63 about just before 1 p.m. ET this afternoon, April 17, 2018.
18-year-old Kassidy Jade Seidle of Gladstone was charged with domestic violence/assault.
“The caller states that a Kassidy Seidle just slashed the tires on his friend’s car, the dispatcher told responding officers. “Apparently she slashed his tires with a knife and she (allegedly) threw it at him.”
The knife is “somewhere still on the property, but she doesn’t have it in hand,” the Delta County 911 Dispatcher told police headed to the mobile home. Its is not clear what instigated the alleged tire slashing.
Meanwhile in the western U.P., if they don’t want you bad – then you are safe even if warrants have been issued accusing you of a violent crime.
Tumblr media
43-year-old Troy Michael Aspinwall of Superior, WI was questioned late this morning by police in Gogebic County and released – because his aggravated assault and domestic violence warrant was a “non-extraditable warrant” issued by the Wisconsin Department of Corrections in Oshkosh, WI.
Another classic case of hiding out on two sides of the border including the western U.P. – while just out of reach of Oshkosh officials – who seem not to really want him back despite listinng him online in a wanted document with his photo.
Its unclear how officers in Gogebic County came upon the man.
The man has former residences listed in Wakefield, Ramsay, and Bessemer in Michigan; plus Castle Rock, CO.
The Gogebic County 911 dispatcher told off Unit Adam 26 that that the crime computer showed a warning for “violent tenancies” due to the aggravated assault and domestic violence charges. His driver’s license was revoked in Wisconsin.
The man has four prior convictions for operating a motor vehicle while impaired (OWI).

U.P. Breaking News Bulletin and Editorial: – 4-13-18 – 7:40 a.m. ET –
Two men arrested this morning for separate alleged domestic violence assaults in Marquette County – one involved baseball bats and the other occurred on tribal lands
Tumblr media
Shame on U.P. Sheriff’s and Prosecutors – who have taken the extreme step of dumping Mobile Patrol – effectively cutting off your right to know – hiding everything – unless they deem it fit for the public consumption
The real U.P. News Directors are the cops/prosecutors – who are acting like narcissistic, emotionally troubled children by taking info off mobile patrol
By Greg Peterson U.P. Breaking News Owner, News Director 906-273-2433
(Marquette County, MI) – Friday the 13th is turning out to be a bloody day for Upper Peninsula women.
A man was booked into the Marquette County Jail early today after a domestic violence call involving a baseball bats.
Meanwhile another man was booked a short while ago for “a DV on the Rez,” an Marquette County Sheriff’s Department deputy radioed to the Marquette County Jail.
Little is known about these cases, and don’t expect the cops to tell you.
Marquette County has listed some of the arrests on Vinelink but Mobile Patrol seems to be permanently down for the entire U.P.
“She hit him with a bat,” stated a dispatcher, adding the male suspect allegedly used the bat on a vehicle.
The dispatcher even stated that the neighbors were worried about the male suspect’s well-being due to numerous arguments with the female half of the incidents. 53-year-old Jeffrey Paul Norman (address unconfirmed) was arrested on a domestic assault/violence charge. Norman has online past addresses in Rock, Gladstone, Perkins and Aurora, Colorado.
Meanwhile – 42-year-old Brian Allen Johnson (address unconfirmed) was arrested about 7 a.m. ET this morning, Friday, April 13, 2018 for that alleged assault on a Native American reservation apparently in Marquette County.
If you have a photo of Mr. Norman or Mr. Johnson – please send it to us.
There were numerous DV calls during the night across the U.P. – but only this one arrest. Many agencies convince victims not to file charges. Despite an assault. Please keep us informed about DV in your area – we will actively pursue these cases in the name of public decency.
——-
While spending the once magic summers in the U.P. as a kid – always thought the elected officials here were extra honest. Boy was I duped. Editorial on state of the DV and assault jail cover-ups in the U.P.:
Have you noticed we are the only media who really cares about this – all the other media hide behind mama’s apron – because of their needs to get lifeblood press releases from the cops (way after the fact, hardly news).
In fact, some media has wanted to see mobile patrol end because we have made the U.P. media look like the lame lapdogs that they are.
Tumblr media
Our question is to the women’s groups in the U.P. – do you folks support not identifying the suspects and not reporting to public the disposition of the DV cases???
If even the women’s groups are going along with the sheriff’s and prosecutors who like it covered up – God help the women of the U.P.
If the women’s groups do not go along with coverup – then why are they quiet as a mouse about it???
We expose all this because – one day – with more enlightened officials in charge – the pathetic U.P. abusers will be exposed.
Like the prisons, many will have to die before changes are made.
All need to be booted from office for dereliction of duty to protect the public from violent people. Then there are the Mushroom Yoopers who like being raised in a vacuum. They prefer to believe the jolly TV newscasts – happy happy, joy joy (unless cops give the media permission to run a story via news release).
U.P. TV/Radio/Newspapers constantly coverup the arrests of wealthy advertisers and community leaders – we have proven that many, many times.
Now every law enforcement agencies and jail in the U.P. is violating the law by keeping the names/charges secret.
I am surprised Yoopers do not demand their rights – but media and crooked elected officials want it secret.
The reason – even last week we revealed a PPO case involving a powerful U.P. business man that was swept under the rug by U.P. media.
I hope young future reporters and future directors of U.P. women’s centers – decide they will not tolerate this. It may take 20 years and lots of black eyes, but hopefully one day the sun will shine on this scourge.
This is so disgusting its beyond words. We can only surmised they either sympathize with abusers (heard one cop in western U.P. has beaten women in his life without consequence, working on exposing him). Until U.P. residents start demanding that their right to know – then your rights keep slipping away. The media will never take action like it has in other areas of the country. The Boss Hogg cops and prosecutors will never tell the public about DV cases because they do not want you to know. U.P. prosecutors treat the cases like they are not important and meant to be plea bargained away (they often even blame victim for having second thoughts about having their abuser prosecuted – and defense attorneys know it).
Lately U.P. law enforcement has started completely hiding all their arrests from Mobile Patrol, because of the crooked prosecutors and sheriff’s who do not want you to know what is happening. They are embarrassed after running for office claiming to be tough on DV – when they are really soft and will plea down any and all cases – and we wonder why DV is only getting worse.
DV suspects know they will likely serve little time – so why not pummel the woman they “love.” Woman on woman DV is also a problem.
Only minorities in the U.P. have their DV cases thoroughly prosecuted. Heard about a case in Chippewa County where black suspects were jailed for year – no trial – and then released with no charges but stuck with huge attorney bills.
    Two more DV stories they do not want you to know about: Man arrested today after call that baseball bats were being used in an argument between a Marquette County couple – and an arrest this morning for domestic violence on grounds of a U.P. Native American nation – but the extraordinary effort to keep this info from you has taken a bad, corrupt and evil turn thanks to U.P. elected officials U.P.

URGENT URGENT U.P. Breaking News Bulletin: – 4-9-18 – 3:02 p.m. ET
Upper Peninsula business man arrested twice in a month for allegedly violating a PPO involving the alleged stalking of his estranged wife
By Greg Peterson U.P. Breaking News Owner, News Director 906-273-2433
(Escanaba, MI) – An Upper Peninsula businessman has been arrested again for allegedly violating a personal protection order (PPO) involving the alleged stalking of his estranged wife who is seeking a divorce.
Tumblr media
61-year-old Steven Alan Swanson of 6569 M Road in Escanaba, MI spent about five hours in the Delta County Detention Center on Saturday morning, April 7, 2018.
It was the second time he has been arrested on the charge in about a month, and each time he has been quickly freed on bond.
Swanson is the co-owner of Hilltop RV.
In fact, frustrated sources contacted U.P. Breaking News – saying his arrests never get reported.
The sources claim that Swanson’s alleged power has stopped him from being arrested in past alleged stalking cases involving women and a child.
Tumblr media
Swanson was booked into the DCDC at 6:24 a.m. ET on Saturday morning, and was released on bond at 11:22 a.m.
A check by U.P. Breaking News shows that many of the Upper Peninsula newspapers, television and radio stations have lucrative contracts with Hilltop RV Super Center – with superstores located in Ishpeming and Escanaba.
Those same media outlets have not reported on Swanson’s arrests. Officials in Delta County remain tight-lipped.
Meanwhile, Swanson was also booked into the DCDC at 8:22 p.m. ET on Friday night, March 9, 2018.
Swanson was charged with violation of a personal protection order (PPO).
Swanson was released from the DCDC on his own recognizance.
Our sources said it is unusual for people arrested for violating a PPO twice in a month – would be eligible for a quick bond.
“Less than one month after the last time he violated the Court Order (PPO) to STOP STALKING – Somebody please explain why he was released from jail on bond,” a source told U.P. Breaking News.
Sources say the latest alleged victim is Swanson’s estranged wife.
“She has been trying to divorce him and he’s making her life a living hell,” a source told U.P. Breaking News.
Swanson has a long history at the business founded by his parents. In fact, Swanson and his family’s business history is proudly displayed on the Hilltop RV website:
“Steve Swanson’s journey to an RV Superstore did not happen overnight,” the company website states. “He began as a part-time employee in 1972 while still attending High School. That’s when his parents, Ken and Theresa Swanson, launched their business as manufacturers of truck campers.”
“The Swanson family business focused away from camper manufacturing to RV sales in the mid 70’s. Within a decade, Hilltop RV became one of Michigan’s largest RV dealers.”
“We decided to get out of every endeavor that wasn’t directly related to the RV industry,” recalls Steve Swanson. “We decided to do what we do best, RV sales and service. That decision not only simplified our entire operation, but it allowed us to focus on what we really enjoyed most.”

URGENT URGENT U.P. Breaking News Bulletin: – 4-9-18 – 3:02 p.m. ET
Upper Peninsula business man arrested twice in a month for allegedly violating a PPO involving the alleged stalking of his estranged wife

(Escanaba, MI) – An Upper Peninsula businessman has been arrested again for allegedly violating a personal protection order (PPO) involving the alleged stalking of his estranged wife who is seeking a divorce.
Tumblr media
61-year-old Steven Alan Swanson of 6569 M Road in Escanaba, MI spent about five hours in the Delta County Detention Center on Saturday morning, April 7, 2018.
It was the second time he has been arrested on the charge in about a month, and each time he has been quickly freed on bond.
Swanson is the co-owner of Hilltop RV.
In fact, frustrated sources contacted U.P. Breaking News – saying his arrests never get reported.
The sources claim that Swanson’s alleged power has stopped him from being arrested in past alleged stalking cases involving women and a child.

Swanson was booked into the DCDC at 6:24 a.m. ET on Saturday morning, and was released on bond at 11:22 a.m.
A check by U.P. Breaking News shows that many of the Upper Peninsula newspapers, television and radio stations have lucrative contracts with Hilltop RV Super Center – with superstores located in Ishpeming and Escanaba.
Those same media outlets have not reported on Swanson’s arrests. Officials in Delta County remain tight-lipped.
Meanwhile, Swanson was also booked into the DCDC at 8:22 p.m. ET on Friday night, March 9, 2018.
Swanson was charged with violation of a personal protection order (PPO).
Swanson was released from the DCDC on his own recognizance.
Our sources said it is unusual for people arrested for violating a PPO twice in a month – would be eligible for a quick bond.
“Less than one month after the last time he violated the Court Order (PPO) to STOP STALKING – Somebody please explain why he was released from jail on bond,” a source told U.P. Breaking News.
Sources say the latest alleged victim is Swanson’s estranged wife.
“She has been trying to divorce him and he’s making her life a living hell,” a source told U.P. Breaking News.
Swanson has a long history at the business founded by his parents. In fact, Swanson and his family’s business history is proudly displayed on the Hilltop RV website:
