Fergus Falls: Justin Hanson Booked on Two Felonies
FERGUS FALLS — (trfnews.i234.me) — Justin Michael Hanson, 40, was booked there on July 1, 2026.
The jail record lists two active felony charges. They include second-degree burglary and receiving stolen property.
The record identifies Hanson under booking number 002600000590. It does not name the arresting agency.
The supplied information also does not state where the alleged offenses happened. Fergus Falls is used because the county jail is there.
Second-Degree Burglary Charge
The burglary charge cites Minnesota Statute 609.582, subdivision 2(a)(4).
That law covers entering a building without consent while possessing a tool for obtaining money or property.
The statute allows a sentence of up to 10 years in prison. It also allows a fine of up to $20,000.
Those penalties are maximum limits under state law. They do not show what sentence Hanson could receive.
A court would consider the facts, criminal history, and other legal factors. No conviction is reported in the booking record.
Receiving Stolen Property Charge
The second charge cites Minnesota Statute 609.53, subdivision 1.
That law covers receiving, possessing, transferring, buying, or hiding stolen property.
The person must know, or have reason to know, that the property was stolen.
Penalties depend on the property type, value, and other facts. The booking entry does not describe the property.
It also does not list an alleged value. No victim information appears in the supplied jail record.
Booking Record Remains Active
Both charges were marked active when the booking information was provided.
No bond amount or first court date was included. Those details may appear in later court records.
The Otter Tail County in-custody list is updated every two hours.
Jail status can change after release or transfer. Readers should check the official roster for current information.
Public case records may also appear through Minnesota Court Records Online.
A booking does not prove that a person committed a crime. Hanson is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
Charges may be changed or dismissed after prosecutors review the evidence. This report uses only the supplied booking record.
