Moorhead Woman Booked on DANCO, Obstruction Charges

Moorhead (trfnews.i234.me) — Hannah Desamille Blankenship, 36, was booked into the Clay County Jail early Monday.

The booking occurred at 4:44 a.m. on June 29, 2026.

Booking records list allegations from two law enforcement agencies.

The Clay County Sheriff’s Office listed two alleged offenses.

Those allegations include violating a DANCO and obstructing the legal process.

The obstruction allegation says Blankenship interfered with police.

The Moorhead Police Department also listed an alleged disorderly conduct offense.

That charge was described as offensive conduct in the booking information.

Three Allegations Listed

A DANCO is a Domestic Abuse No Contact Order issued by a court.

The order can restrict contact between a defendant and another person.

Minnesota law provides penalties for knowingly violating such an order.

The booking record did not describe the alleged violation.

It also did not identify the protected person or provide other case details.

The supplied record did not describe what led to the arrest.

It did not list an incident location or reported injuries.

No court date, bail amount, or criminal case number was included.

The record also did not show whether formal charges had been filed.

Prosecutors review arrest reports before deciding which charges to pursue.

The final charges may differ from the allegations listed during booking.

Readers can review the Clay County inmate roster for updated custody information.

Clay County warns that roster information may be incomplete or outdated.

The county also says booking information should not support legal action.

Public case information may later appear through Minnesota Court Records Online.

That system provides access to many Minnesota district court records.

Available records may include complaints, hearing dates, and case outcomes.

The Minnesota DANCO law is available through the Office of the Revisor of Statutes.

An arrest or jail booking does not prove guilt.

Blankenship is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.

The allegations may be changed, reduced, or dismissed during the legal process.
