MOUNT CLEMENS, Michigan (FOX 2) – A 47-year-old Detroit police officer was arraigned Wednesday, Oct. 23, 2024, in connection with a domestic violence incident in Harrison Township.

Police say Louis Allen Wilson arrived at his home and told the victim he was going to execute her on Oct. 22, then the victim ran to a neighbor’s house and called police.

Wilson, who is charged with domestic violence-second offense, which is a one-year felony, is a 16-year veteran of the department.

Macomb County District Attorney Pete Lucido said in 2018 Wilson pleaded guilty to domestic violence involving the same companion.

“It means he probably didn’t find out the first time, if he was found guilty,” Lucido said.

A second charge of domestic violence is a misdemeanor with a maximum sentence of one year.

“That’s not my job. It’s the legislature,” Lucido said. “We have to follow the law.”

Wilson is still with the Detroit Police Department and is suspended with pay. FOX 2 is told Chief James White will recommend that he be suspended without pay.

The decision will be made by the Board of Police Commissioners.
