Hubbard County Jail Lists Failure-to-Appear Allegation
According to the supplied Hubbard County Jail record, Bowstring’s custody date was Tuesday, October 27, 2026.
The entry lists case reference 2026009872.
The offense description reads “Failure to Appear – Charged/Convicted Gross Misdemeanor.”
The provided information does not explain when the alleged missed appearance occurred.
It also does not identify the original criminal case that led to the failure-to-appear allegation.
No arrest narrative or supporting criminal complaint was included in the booking information.
What Does Failure to Appear Mean in Minnesota?
Under Minnesota Statute 609.49, failing to appear for certain required court proceedings can result in a criminal charge.
Subdivision 2 applies to people charged with misdemeanors or gross misdemeanors who intentionally fail to appear for trial under specified circumstances.
The statute requires qualifying notice or a release condition requiring personal appearance.
The failure-to-appear offense described by this subdivision is a misdemeanor.
Although Bowstring’s jail entry includes a gross misdemeanor designation, the supplied record does not resolve that difference in classification.
The available information also does not establish whether Bowstring received the notice required under the statute.
Jail Record Shows $0 Bail Amount
Bowstring’s jail entry displays a bail or fine amount of $0.00.
That figure does not necessarily mean Bowstring was eligible for immediate release without conditions.
The record does not provide a court date or explain whether a hold or other release restriction applies.
No confirmed release date was included in the supplied information.
Updated custody information may be available through the Hubbard County Inmate Locator.
Original Case Details Not Available

The listed jail case reference should not be assumed to be an official district court file number.
Readers can search available public filings through Minnesota Court Records Online.
Further details may also be available through the Hubbard County Sheriff’s Office.
A jail custody record does not establish that a person has been convicted of the listed allegation.
Bowstring is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in court.
