FERGUS FALLS, Minn. (trfnews.i234.me) — Kailee Agatha Kawlewski, 28, was booked into the Otter Tail County Jail on July 30, 2026.

The county custody roster lists three active charges against Kawlewski. The allegations include second-degree DWI, open bottle possession, and felony child endangerment.

Second-Degree DWI Charge

The gross misdemeanor DWI charge cites Minnesota Statute 169A.25, subdivision 1(a). That law covers DWI cases involving two or more aggravating factors.

Minnesota law lists three possible aggravating factors. They include a recent impaired-driving incident, a 0.16 alcohol concentration, or a qualifying child passenger.

The booking record does not identify the alleged aggravating factors. It also provides no details about testing or the traffic stop.

Second-degree DWI is a gross misdemeanor under Minnesota law. Any penalty would depend on court findings and the complete case record.

Open Bottle Allegation

Kawlewski also faces a misdemeanor charge under Minnesota’s open bottle law. The cited law covers opened alcohol containers inside certain private vehicles on public roads.

The roster does not state where an alleged container was found. It also does not identify who allegedly owned or handled it.

More information about the law appears under Minnesota Statute 169A.35.

TRF News is withholding any details that could identify a child. The booking record does not list the alleged incident location.

Court And Jail Information

A district court calendar listed Kawlewski for a first appearance on July 31. The calendar lists case number 56-CR-26-1868.

The Fergus Falls dateline reflects the county jail and court location. It does not identify the alleged incident location.

Kawlewski’s jail booking number is 002600000685. The roster listed all three charges as active when reviewed.

Current custody information is available through the Otter Tail County Jail custody list. Court schedules and custody records can change without notice.

A jail booking does not establish guilt. Every charge remains an allegation unless proven in court.
