The jail entry lists a felony-level failure-to-appear allegation. It cites Minnesota Statute 609.49, subdivision 1.

Booking Details

The supplied record says the missed appearance involved a felony charge or conviction. It does not identify the underlying felony case.

The record also does not provide the scheduled court date. No bond amount appears in the supplied information.

A booking date records when jail staff processed a person. It does not establish when the alleged offense occurred.

No police officer names are included in this report. The supplied entry does not name the arresting agency.

Minnesota Statute 609.49 covers release and failure to appear.

Subdivision 1 applies to people charged with or convicted of a felony. The law contains several required conditions.

The statute addresses an intentional failure to appear after notice or a release order. Each case depends on its facts.

The statute also includes a 48-hour surrender provision. A felony charge may be dismissed after a qualifying voluntary surrender.

That provision has specific limits and legal requirements. The booking entry does not show whether it applies here.

A jail booking is not a criminal conviction. Ogitchida is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.

Charges can change after prosecutors review reports and court records. Judges also decide release terms and future hearing dates.

The Polk County Sheriff’s Office provides official county law enforcement information.

Minnesota court records may contain later case updates. Readers should use official records for the newest information.

The supplied booking entry contains limited details. It does not provide a court file number or final case outcome.
