Videotape emerges – as Delta County tries to stop you from knowing – of an assault and domestic violence melee that happen Sunday night in a Ford River Bar – and a convicted sex offender has been arrested

Convicted sex offender accused of assault – and domestic violence after he allegedly attacked his wife and another man in a bar Sunday night – this as Delta County authorities do not want you to know which people are charged with domestic assault

(Escanaba, MI) – While the Delta County Sheriff and Prosecutor continue protecting the identities of those who beat women, U.P. Breaking News keeps getting information from behind their Iron Curtain – as a convicted sex offender has been released on bond after allegedly brutal attack on his wife and another man in a Ford River Bar on Sunday night.

43-year-old Richard Dale Stannard was booked into the Delta County Detention Center late Sunday, April 29, 2018 and released on bond just over an hour later.

Stannard was convicted on May 17, 1996 of criminal sexual conduct (CSC) – assault with intent to commit sexual penetration in Delta County 47th District Court.

U.P. Breaking News has found a video of the altercation involving three people – Richard Stannard is shown allegedly beating up Brent Papineau Jr.

Richard Stannard is allegedly shown throwing his wife Nicki Stannard. We have tried to upload the video but so far have not been able to do it.

He apparently has had addresses in Escanaba and Ford River.

Richard Lee Stannard, with his wife cropped out

Stannard’s sex offender registration states he currently lives at 3774 L.15 Lane in Escanaba.

The Delta County Prosecutor and Sheriff recently decided to protect those charged with all violence because U.P. Breaking News pointed out they have given sweetheart deals to men who beat and terrorize women.

They are releasing the photos and names of people booked, but no longer showing what criminal charges had been filed.

U.P. Breaking News believes that the U.P. domestic violence epidemic will continue if the suspects are allowed to hide in the shadows of the egos of electrocuted officials – as women are beaten every night across the U.P.

We have heard every excuse in the book for not identifying those who commit these horrendous crimes.

The exact charges against Stannard are not known because Delta County is hiding that information. Our sources tipped us off to this case.
Stannard is said to be charged with assault and battery, and domestic violence

U.P. Breaking News has read numerous online comments about this case – some demonizing Stannard fearing what will happen next – and others who have strongly defended him.

Many residents spoke out about their concern for the couple’s child/children.

Some say the male victim – Brent Papineau Jr. – and Stannard’s wife do not deserve to get a beat down.

With some even blaming the victim for “pushing him too far.” That seems to be a common attitude amongst domestic violence cases – the falsehood that it is somehow the victim’s fault.

“I fear he may do worse, and there are kids in the home,” exclaimed one concerned citizen who knows the couple. Some stated that Stannard has the money to buy himself out of past beating incidents.

“The fact that he is a rich guy scares the hell out of me – if he can throw around his own wife like that,” stated one of several sources.

Stannard has the aliases of Rocky Stannard, and Rocky Dale Stannard.

As U.P. Breaking News closes down today, we hope our effort to show light on domestic violence will help even one woman from being beaten. We will reopen once we can afford our expenses of $250 per month.

I have spent thousands to bring you the information on brutality in U.P. counties and tribal nations therein. We hope U.P. residents who live in the Iron Curtain counties of news blackouts – will remember this when they go to the polls to vote for sheriff and prosecutor.

If you would like to help us get restarted call 905-273-2433.

Thank you and I pray for all the woman who will be beaten this weekend and do not know it yet.

Suspect round up: Juveniles on a motorcycle and an ATV take police on a wild chase through the streets of Gladstone, MI before pursuit was terminated for safety reasons

URGENT URGENT U.P. Breaking News Bulletin – 4-21-18 – 4:25 p.m. ET

Suspects, ATV identified: Wild Saturday afternoon chase pits Gladstone, MI cops against wild male juveniles on an ATV and motorcycle – winding around numerous streets of the town in and around a cemetery

Suspect roundup, ATV inspected – after juveniles teens led Gladstone Police on a Saturday chase involving a motorbike and an ATV – in and around a cemetery

(Gladstone, MI) – A group of juveniles on a motorcycle and an ATV led police on a dangerous several mile pursuit through the streets of Gladstone, MI on Saturday afternoon – before police made the decision to end the chase for safety reasons.

Late reports indicated that officers found the suspect ATV – and are still looking for and questioning teen male juveniles.

The juveniles are wanted on a multitude of probate court charges – and were riding dangerously on a blue motorbike and a green and white squad four-wheeler ATV. The officer described the vehicle as a motorcycle during the chase and later described it as a motorbike (smaller vehicle than motorcycle).

The chase started about 3:15 p.m. ET on Saturday afternoon, April 21, 2018. It ended about 7 minutes later.

Gladstone Police first spotted the juveniles on 29th Street – and the chase was on.

Streets and locations mentioned in the winding circular chase included 29th Street, Weston Avenue (several times), 27th Street, N. Bluff Street, a fire hall, the Fernwood Cemetery and at one point “heading toward M-35.”

The lead pursuit officer told another that the suspects were juveniles and both officers immediately had safety concerns.

One officer suggest that since the suspects are juvenile teens “it is probably correct to shut it down.”

The second officer said “I would agree.”

Police soon stopped the chase near Ketcham Street.

“Lets stop the pursuit all together,’ radioed one of the officers – as his siren blared in the background of his transmission.

Another said he could hear the ATV in the distance – and officers started driving around looking for parked vehicles similar to the ones in the chase.

“I can hear them toward South Hill Road doing circles,” one of the officer stated.
The officers were inspecting a nearby parked ATV on the 900 block of Loueda Avenue.

It appears it was the one of the two suspect vehicles.

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. 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

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

(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.

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.

 

 

Delta County businessman busted again for allegedly violating personal protection order (PPO): Hilltop RV co-owner again arrested for PPO violation involving the alleged stalking of his estranged wife; Swanson’s arrests have not been reported by U.P. media – with whom Hilltop RV has advertising contracts.

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.

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:

“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.”

Gladstone man who surrendered 44 puppies and a rabbit to the Delta Animal Shelter – was given a trespass warning Saturday after allegedly making threats in effort to get his animals back

Threats Against the Delta Animal Shelter Escalate – Gladstone man whose 44 dogs and a rabbit were surrendered was given a trespass warning today by the cops

(Escanaba, MI) – Delta County law enforcement officers to responded to reports of threats and a trespassing disturbance Saturday morning at the Delta Animal Shelter in Escanaba, MI – as the man whose 44 dogs and a rabbit were surrendered wants the animals back – and he blames shelter employees.

Police today officially gave a trespassing warning to 66-year-old Herbert “Herb” Raymond Watson of 1311 Delta Avenue in Gladstone, MI.

“They are having a problem with a subject (Watson) calling and threatening and its starting to escalate,” a Delta County 911 Dispatcher told police officers who were en-route to the shelter to meet with manager Sue Gartland.

Plus Watson was told to stop making alleged threats against the Delta Animal Shelter and its employees/volunteers.

Knowing they would be seized anyway, Watson agreed last month to surrender 44 puppies and the rabbit to the Delta Animal Shelter.

The 44 puppies and a rabbit were removed from Watson’s Gladstone home by shelter officials and Gladstone Police on Thursday, March 22, 2018. Some sources who contacted U.P. Breaking News claimed the man was allegedly running a puppy mill in the middle of Gladstone.

It seems concern over Watson’s alleged threats have to be taken seriously in light of his sentencing in court last month.
Five days before he surrendered the animals in March 2018, Watson was sentenced to the 31 days he had just spent in the Delta County Detention Center jail after he pleaded guilty to domestic violence Watson was ordered to pay $125 in fines/costs.

Technically, the tiny chiweenie puppies were surrendered to the Delta Animal Shelter by Watson – although they would have been removed if he did not cooperate as officials had extremely serious concerns for the care of the animals.

The 44 dogs are a small breed called “chiweenies” – a cross between a Chihuahua and dachshund (aka wiener dogs).

The shelter is hoping the public will adopt the dogs – however in the meantime the outdoor dogs are now inside being loved, socialized/house trained and treated at the Delta Animal Shelter – A “No Kill” operation.

The dogs must be spayed/neutered, given both rabies vaccinations, deworming, flea treatment, – all thanks to a kind veterinarian. Shelter officials feel sure that the puppies will make amazing and fantastic pets. They animals were surrendered in fairly good condition – however some were scared.

That cute fuzzy rabbit can be adopted at the shelter.

Delta County residents and the entire Upper Peninsula community have already been sending much needed donations.

The shelter needs your help as cash donations go specifically for the welfare of the dogs and cats – and rabbit.

Those who care and an afford it – are urged to donate canned dog food, paper towels, chewy doggie treats, puppy pads, brand name Frontline topical flea treatment (for small dogs); and bring on the Lysol cleaner – as much as your can.

Its against the law to run a puppy mill – or any big and filthy collection of animals – especially in the city limits of numerous U.P. communities

Delta Animal Shelter

(Escanaba, MI) – U.P. Breaking News is now forced to show all arrests in Delta County – since the Delta County Sheriff and Prosecutor just began hiding charges again domestic violence and other assault suspects.

They did this a day or so after we criticized them for being weak on DV suspect – who had attacked two people in his short life – and put one in a coma.

We do not know – and neither does the public – what these people were charged with – and officials in Delta County like it that way.

U.P. Breaking News believes strongly in exposing domestic violence that is rampant across northern Michigan. It is sad that 14 of the 15 U.P. counties (exception is Marquette County) hide domestic violence and other felony arrests from the public.

They like the power and control of information – and like to decide what you know. This is unacceptable in a free society – especially in an area where a women are violently attacked daily by other men and women. Sometimes the victims are men – but most are beaten by cowardly men (the prosecutors, sheriffs are men).

Domestic violence must be brought out of the shadows even if the U.P. local Boss Hoggs want to protect the offenders. Women have the right to know what men and other women are violent.

Apparently they want you to guess the charges.

(Marquette County, MI) – In the past 36, hours, two west Marquette County residents are busted on domestic assault charges, a Gwinn woman on an embezzlement charge, and a Negaunee woman is charged in a fourth degree child abuse case – plus a downstate man is held on a $100,000 contempt of court charges and held without bond in Marquette County on a weapons charge.

fyi – Delta County goes dark and turns soft on DV, like 13 other U.P. Counties – who do not want to admit the crime in their area and thus protect men who commit domestic violence – we believe everyone and especially women have the right to know this information even if their Boss Hogg leaders are asleep at the wheel.
U.P. Breaking News used to provide the detailed arrests in Delta County, but county officials this week stopped revealing charges even in domestic violence cases – because they did not like our editorial accusing them of giving good deals to male abusers. We do not want to miss a DV or assault arrest – so we are now force to print all names – we will be printing all the Delta County arrests later today – a lot of them since Friday.
