Pillager Man Booked in Restraining Order Case

PILLAGER (trfnews.i234.me) — A 76-year-old Pillager man was recently booked following an alleged restraining order violation.

Larry Paschelke was booked at 2:01 p.m. on June 29, 2026. The booking appeared on the Cass County Jail register.

The register lists one alleged offense under Minnesota Statute 609.748, subdivision 6(a). That law addresses violations of harassment restraining orders.

Booking Record Lists One Allegation

The jail record identifies Paschelke as a Pillager resident. It also states that he was housed at the Itasca County Jail.

The public register does not describe the events that led to the arrest. It also does not identify the protected person.

No police officers were named in the public booking entry. The report does not include a court outcome.

The jail listing names only one charge. It does not say whether Paschelke had appeared before a judge.

What Minnesota Law Says

Minnesota Statute 609.748 covers harassment restraining orders. Subdivision 6 addresses alleged violations of those orders.

A restraining order may direct someone to stop harassment. It may also ban contact with another person.

Penalties can depend on prior violations and other facts. Those details were not included in the jail register.

Readers can view detention information through the Cass County Detention Center website. The county also posts an in-custody report.

Case Remains Pending

A jail booking is not proof of guilt. Paschelke is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.

Charging decisions and court dates are handled through the judicial process. Additional information may become available through court records.

Public booking information can change as a case moves forward. Later court filings may provide more details or a final outcome.

Authorities have not released further details about the alleged violation. This report will be updated if official information becomes available.
