Sarah Palin's Son Arrested for Domestic Violence (Again)
by EG
When she was a political candidate, Sarah Palin was all about wholesome American family values, but since then, her family's been behaving more like the reality-TV clan they became on Sarah Palin's Alaska. Palin's oldest son, Track, was arrested over the weekend on domestic violence charges relating to an alleged attack on an unidentified victim. It's the second time Track has been arrested on similar charges, having been charged with attacking his girlfriend in 2016.

The oldest son of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, was arrested over the weekend on charges of domestic violence. It marks the second time he has been arrested on suspicion of domestic violence in two years.
Track Palin, 28, was arraigned Sunday morning on three counts: felony burglary, misdemeanor reckless assault and misdemeanor criminal mischief for causing between $250 and $999 in property damage, according to online court records. Each charge was related to domestic violence.
It is not clear whether he entered a plea to the charges, and the victim in the arrest was not identified.
A person at Mat-Su Pretrial Facility in Palmer also told NBC News that Track was still being held there as of Sunday night.
The arrest occurred in Wasilla, where his mother served as mayor before becoming the state’s governor.
“Given the nature of actions addressed last night by law enforcement and the charges involved, the Palins are unable to comment further,” attorney John Tiemessen said in a statement to NBC News. “They ask that the family’s privacy is respected during this challenging situation just as others dealing with a struggling family member would also request.”
Tiemessen and the last known press representative for the Palin family were not immediately available for further comment to PEOPLE.
In Jan. 2016, Track was arrested after being accused of assaulting his girlfriend and pointing a gun at her.
Authorities responded to multiple 911 calls at the Palin family home, where the U.S. Army veteran and girlfriend Jordan Loewe told authorities they had fight, according to an affidavit obtained by KTVA Alaska at the time.
Track was found with a visible injury to his right eye and smelled of alcohol, according to the report. He was allegedly “uncooperative, belligerent, and evasive,” the report said, and his blood alcohol level was 0.189 percent.
Loewe was later discovered hiding under a bed on the property, and told authorities that Track had punched her in the face and kicked her in the right knee. Loewe had “bruising and swelling around her left eye,” according to the affidavit.
