Suspect in Hubbell killing charged

HOUGHTON, MI--   A Houghton County man has been arraigned for the stabbing death of a Hubbell woman. 

Paul David Moilanen, 42, of Hubbell is charged with second-degree murder and attempted murder in connection with the early Friday morning incident. 

Houghton County Sheriff’s deputies were called to a home around 3:30 a.m. and found Marcy Lavigne, 48, had been stabbed to death.  Her 14-year-old daughter also suffered from multiple stab wounds, but is expected to recover. 

Officials say Moilanen was Lavigne’s boyfriend.  He remains lodged in the Houghton County Jail on a $2.5 million cash bond. 

A preliminary hearing will be held in two weeks.
