Bemidji Jail Lists Lakesia Fairbanks on Two Charges

BEMIDJI (trfnews.i234.me) — A Beltrami County Jail listing identifies Lakesia Fairbanks in connection with two reported offenses.

The custody date shown in the record is Sunday, October 25, 2026.

The entry lists domestic assault and an alleged violation of a domestic abuse no-contact order.

Both charges appear under the same listed case number, 26020247.

Two Allegations Appear in Jail Record

The first allegation is listed under Minnesota Statute 609.2242, subdivision 1(2).

Its description concerns intentionally causing, or attempting to cause, bodily harm to another person in a domestic setting.

The second allegation appears under Minnesota Statute 629.75, subdivision 2(b).

That entry concerns allegedly violating a domestic abuse no-contact order.

The jail excerpt does not describe the incident behind either allegation.

It also does not identify a complainant, an incident location, or the circumstances of the alleged contact.

What Minnesota Law Says

Minnesota’s domestic assault statute covers intentional bodily harm or attempted bodily harm against a family or household member.

Subdivision 1 describes the offense as a misdemeanor.

Minnesota’s domestic abuse no-contact order statute addresses certain violations of court-issued orders.

Under subdivision 2(b), a knowing violation is generally a misdemeanor, subject to the statute’s more serious penalty provisions.

These legal descriptions do not establish that either offense occurred in this particular case.

Custody and Court Details Remain Limited

The record shows a custody date of October 25 and a bail or fine amount of $0.00.

That amount alone does not explain whether bail has been set or release conditions apply.

The excerpt identifies District Court as the court branch for both listed allegations.

However, the court date fields are blank.

The supplied record does not establish when an initial hearing occurred or whether a future hearing has been scheduled.

It also does not provide a detailed complaint or court ruling.

Custody status and court information can change after an inmate listing is published.

Where to Review Public Records

The Beltrami County inmate locator provides public jail listing information.

The Beltrami County Sheriff’s Office oversees the county jail in Bemidji.

Readers may also consult Minnesota Court Records Online for available public court filings.

The jail listing is not proof of a conviction, and the outcome of either allegation is not established.

Fairbanks is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
