Track Palin, son of politician Sarah Palin, arrested in Alaska for assault and battery

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (Reuters) - The elder son of former Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin was in jail on Sunday, facing assault and burglary charges in her home state of Alaska.
Track Palin, 28, appeared in state court in Palmer, Alaska, earlier in the day, on a felony burglary charge and misdemeanor assault and criminal mischief charges, court records showed. All the charges involved domestic violence, the records indicated.
It is not clear whether he entered a plea to the charges.
His legal troubles have prompted his mother in the past to question the support available for military veterans like her son who may be suffering from post-traumatic stress.
"Given the nature of actions addressed last night by law enforcement and the charges involved, the Palins are unable to comment further," the family's attorney, John Tiemessen, said in a statement on Sunday.
"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."
Court records did not indicate whether an attorney had been appointed for Track Palin, and Reuters was unable to reach an attorney who has represented him in the past.
After his arrest on Saturday, he remained in custody at the Mat-Su Pretrial Facility in Palmer on Sunday afternoon, Megan Edge, a spokeswoman for the Alaska Department of Corrections, said by telephone.
In 2016, he faced several charges related to domestic violence, including using a weapon while intoxicated, court records show. The case was resolved in a special veterans' court, with a conviction on a misconduct charge.
His involvement in a booze-fueled brawl at a family gathering in 2014 also drew wide attention. Authorities did not file criminal charges in the incident.

The real question here, who named their kids more terrible, Palins or the Romneys?

Why is this a political issue? Insane we can't leave the families alone.

The news that will break a nation. The son of a former governor of a forgettable state.

Looking back knowing what we know now, Palin was put on the ticket by the puppet masters to ensure an Obama victory.
That is the only logical explanation.

Sarah Palin was the gop vice presidential nominee who ran on a family values platform.
She stumped on knowing how families should operate.
Her son's arrest is evidence of what values she holds.

Tim Kaine was the Democrat Vice Presidential nominee who ran on a peaceful anti violence platform.
He stumped on knowing how that we're stronger together.

Rioting and smashing store front windows while wearing black pajamas and a mask does not equal political protest.

Do you think I don't think Palin and Kaine are both losers of the highest order?
