Joseph Earl Lauzon, accused of assaulting woman on Ojibwa Reservation, jailed for more crimes

A man accused of assaulting a woman on an American Indian Reservation – then committing other crimes while free on bond – had his chain jerked by the feds – he's now in jail

(Marquette, Michigan) - An Upper Peninsula man complained he wasn't getting his chemotherapy in jail after being arrested for a bond violation in connection with a domestic assault, a break-in and contacting the victim.

Joseph Earl Lauzon is charged with Assault Within Maritime and Territorial Jurisdiction

Charge stems from alleged crimes near Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan on the reservation of the Sault Ste. Marie Band of Chippewa Indians (doesn't involve maritime – part of official name of federal charge). He is being held in the Chippewa County Jail.

U.S. Marshals brought Lauzon into the courtroom on Wed., August 6, 2014 to face a bond violation hearing before U.S. Magistrate Judge Timothy P. Greeley in U.S. District Court in Marquette, Michigan.

Judge Greeley is never pleased when assault suspects contact their victims.

Greeley said Lauzon contacting/visiting the female victim is obstruction of justice.

Judge Greeley expressed displeasure with the allegations that Lauzon committed another assault, breaking and entering and destruction of property – plus had contact with the original assault victim.

It was not immediately clear the circumstances around that original assault.

Assistant United States Attorney Hannah Bobee said the federal government is “seeking detention” because of the suspect's violation of instructions – and the law - when freed on bond.

Lauzon is being represented by Asst. U.S. Public Defender Elizabeth “Beth” LaCosse (formerly Elizabeth Paczesny who served as a prosecutor in 3 U.P. Counties) of the Marquette Branch of the Federal Public Defender's Office for the Western District of Michigan.

Judge Greeley asked Lauzon if he was receiving all his medications while incarcerated.

Lauzon said he was not getting some of his medication (for unspecified illnesses) adding “I am supposed to be getting my chemotherapy.”

Joseph Earl Lauzon, 36, River Road, Manistique, pleaded guilty in 93rd District Court to operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated, second offense notice/was sentenced 120 days in Schoolcraft County Jail.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

SUMMARY
=======
The Upper Peninsula (UP), also known as Upper Michigan, is the northern of the two major peninsulas that make up the U.S. state of Michigan. The peninsula is bounded on the north by Lake Superior, on the east by the St. Marys River, on the southeast by Lake Michigan and Lake Huron, and on the southwest by Wisconsin. Upper Peninsula counties also include nearby islands such as Grand, Drummond, Mackinac, and Bois Blanc, and more distant Isle Royale.
The Upper Peninsula contains 29% of the land area of Michigan but just 3% of its total population. Residents are frequently called Yoopers (derived from U.P.-ers) and have a strong regional identity. Large numbers of French Canadian, Finnish, Swedish, Cornish, and Italian immigrants came to the Upper Peninsula, especially the Keweenaw Peninsula, to work in the area's mines and lumber industry. The peninsula includes the only counties in the United States where a plurality of residents claim Finnish ancestry.The peninsula's largest cities are Marquette, Sault Ste. Marie, Escanaba, Menominee, Houghton, and Iron Mountain. The heavily forested land and long, harsh winters make it poorly suited for agriculture. The economy is based primarily on logging and tourism; mining was a major industry during a golden age from 1890 to 1920.
