MARQUETTE — Investigations have lead the Upper Peninsula Substance Enforcement Team (UPSET) to two drug arrests in recent days.

On February 3, following a one-year investigation, UPSET detectives and the Keweenaw County Sheriff’s Department arrested Scott Pacetti, 48, of Mohawk, on a 14-count arrest warrant for selling illegal drugs in Keweenaw County.

UPSET detectives conducted numerous undercover drug purchases from Pacetti over the past year which led to the execution of a search warrant at an address on No. 5 Rd in Mohawk on January 24. During the search, detectives seized additional illegal drugs, a pistol, digital scales, numerous electronic devices and other drug paraphernalia.

In addition, detectives seized an illegal butane THC extraction lab from the basement of the residence.

The charges include delivery of cocaine, delivery of morphine, and delivery of heroin, which are all 20-year felonies. Pacetti was also charged with possession of methamphetamine, 10 year felony, possession with intent to deliver MDMA, 20 year felony, as well as maintaining a drug house.

Pacetti was arraigned in 97th District Court and bond was set at $5,000. The case is being handled by the Keweenaw County Prosecutor’s office.

UPSET was assisted by the Keweenaw County Sheriff, Houghton County Sheriff, MSP-Calumet Post and MSP-Hometown Security Team.

In an unrelated case, on February 2, detectives from UPSET, along with troopers from the MSP Eighth District Hometown Security conducted an investigation that led to a search warrant at residence on County Rd 557 in Marquette County’s Forsyth Township.

During a search of the residence detectives seized finished meth product, drug paraphernalia and components used to manufacture meth. Detectives utilized specialized hazmat equipment and gear was used to identify and dismantle the meth lab. Eight buckets of hazardous material was removed from the scene.
