Polk County Man Booked in No-Contact Case

POLK COUNTY (trfnews.i234.me) — Cole Dante Brown was booked into the Northwest Regional Corrections Center on July 9, 2026.

The jail roster lists a misdemeanor charge involving an alleged domestic abuse no-contact order violation.

The roster identifies Minnesota Statute 629.75, subdivision 2(b), as the controlling charge.

Under that law, a person may face a misdemeanor for knowingly violating a domestic abuse no-contact order.

A jail booking shows that a person entered custody. It does not prove guilt or show a final court result.

Booking Details

The official roster lists Brown’s incarceration date as July 9.

No detailed account of the alleged contact was included in the roster. The document also did not list a court file number.

The roster did not describe where the alleged violation happened. It did not identify another person involved in the case.

The Polk County Sheriff’s Office also provides information about local records. Requests may include arrest reports and incident records.

What the Charge Means

A domestic abuse no-contact order is issued by a court. It can limit contact with a protected person.

Minnesota law says a knowing violation may be charged as a misdemeanor. More serious penalties may apply in other circumstances.

Those penalties can depend on prior qualifying convictions. They can also depend on other facts in a case.

Brown’s listed charge is only an allegation at this stage. He is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.

Case status may change after a first appearance, charging decision, or later hearing. Jail rosters may also change without notice.

Official court records provide the best source for future case updates. Minnesota court access information is available online.

TRF News will update this report when verified court details become available.
