Fergus Falls Jail Books Man on Domestic Assault Charge

OTTER TAIL COUNTY (trfnews.i234.me) — Cody Lane Kirschbaum is 31. He was booked into the Otter Tail County Jail on July 5, 2026.

The supplied booking record lists one active misdemeanor domestic assault charge. The charge falls under Minnesota Statute 609.2242, subdivision 1(1).

Charge Listed in Booking Record

That law covers acts allegedly intended to cause fear of immediate bodily harm or death. The booking record does not describe the reported incident.

Jail information identifies Kirschbaum as a male inmate. His booking number is 002600000604.

The supplied record listed the charge as active. It did not include a bond amount or projected release date.

Minnesota law applies this domestic assault section to a family or household member. The public entry does not identify an alleged victim.

A booking entry records an arrest and detention. It does not prove guilt or establish what happened.

Kirschbaum is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court. Prosecutors must support the allegation with evidence during the legal process.

Public Records May Be Updated

Readers can review the Otter Tail County Jail in-custody page for updated detention information. The county says the online list updates every two hours.

The county also warns that roster information may change. It advises against relying on the list for legal action.

Court dates and public filings may appear later through Minnesota Court Records Online. That service provides access to many public district court records.

The available booking information does not describe injuries, witnesses, or weapons. It also does not provide a police report or court complaint.

This story uses only the booking details available at publication time.

TRF News will update this report when verified court information becomes available. Any later charge changes should be confirmed through official records.
