Crookston: Chase Donaldson Booked on Drug Allegation

CROOKSTON, Minn. (trfnews.i234.me) — Chase William Donaldson, 28, was listed as booked in Polk County on October 27, 2026.

The booking entry lists a felony allegation involving second-degree controlled substance possession.

Donaldson’s date of birth is listed as February 4, 1998.

The entry cites Minnesota Statute 152.022, subdivision 2(a)(1), which addresses certain felony drug possession offenses.

Second-Degree Drug Possession Allegation

The supplied jail booking describes an allegation involving possession of six grams or more of a controlled substance.

However, that description does not match the specific statute cited in the entry.

Under Minnesota Statute 152.022, subdivision 2(a)(1), the threshold is 25 grams of cocaine or methamphetamine.

A separate provision addresses possession of six grams or more of heroin or fentanyl.

The available booking information does not clearly establish which substance or quantity is involved in Donaldson’s case.

It also does not describe the circumstances that led to the reported booking.

No specific arrest location, traffic stop, search, or investigation details were provided.

The Northwest Regional Corrections Center is located at 816 Marin Avenue in Crookston.

The facility serves Polk, Norman, and Red Lake counties through Tri-County Community Corrections.

The reported booking date is October 27, 2026.

Second-degree controlled substance possession is a felony offense under Minnesota law.

The law sets penalties based on the offense and applicable sentencing rules.

However, a listed felony allegation does not mean a person has been convicted.

The supplied booking information does not include a bond amount, court case number, or scheduled hearing date.

It also does not identify the investigating agency or provide a statement from prosecutors.

Further information may become available through the Minnesota court system.

Readers can visit Minnesota Court Records Online for access to available public court documents.

Some pending criminal cases cannot be found through a defendant’s name alone.

The official jail roster also provides information about people held at the regional corrections center.

That roster is generally updated Monday through Friday.

Jail records can change as cases proceed through the courts.

A booking does not establish guilt or prove that the alleged offense occurred.

Donaldson is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.

Additional verified records could clarify the alleged substance, its quantity, and the circumstances surrounding the case.
