Heath found guilty of voluntary manslaughter after shooting in Howell

The former owner of a downtown tattoo shop was found guilty of voluntary manslaughter Nov. 12 in Livingston County's 44th Circuit Court. Jeremy Heath, 50, of Clarkston, was accused of shooting and killing Sean Thompson in June 2024 at Metro Studios Ink on Grand River Avenue in Howell. He was charged with one count of open murder, two counts of felony firearms, one count of carrying a dangerous weapon with unlawful intent, and one count of carrying a concealed weapon. Open murder is usually a combination of first- and second-degree murder, to be decided by the jury based on the evidence presented at trial. For this case, voluntary manslaughter was also allowed consideration. More: Trial begins for tattoo shop owner accused of murder in Howell The trial before Judge Matthew McGivney began with opening arguments Nov. 2.

Macomb board shifts priorities in Executive Mark Hackel's proposed budget

The Macomb County Board of Commissioners shifted prioirities and made trims to County Executive Mark Hackel's proposed budget for the upcoming fiscal year on Thursday, Nov. 12, including eliminating new positions county departments had requested. In unanimous votes in its Finance/Audit/Budget Committee meeting Thursday afternoon, commissioners amended Hackel's proposed budget, some of which were cuts and some of which were increases or other changes. The proposed budget set aside around $21 million for capital needs, or improvements to county buildings and parking lots, in the general fund. Commissioners didn't want to take as much money out of the county's savings as the county executive had proposed, said Commissioner Phil Kraft. They instead pulled $5 million out of savings and decided to make reductions elsewhere in the budget, allowing the board to set aside $20 million for capital plan projects. "We wanted to reduce the pull from the overall general fund," Kraft said. Hackel offered his proposed budget in early October for the 2027 fiscal year, which begins Jan. 1. The $1.25 billion budget reflects an 11.9% increase over the current budget . The board is slated to adopt the budget Nov. 19. Hackel's budget included 26.8 new full-time equivalent positions,
