Booking Information

Jail records identify Mulligan as 6 feet, 2 inches tall. His listed weight is 187 pounds.

The record describes his hair as gray and his eyes as brown.

The jail entry showed a bail or fine amount of $0.00. That figure may mean no amount was entered.

It should not be read as proof that release was approved. Release terms can change after a court review.

The roster marks Mulligan’s status as “Hold.” It gives no further reason for that status.

Booking records can change as cases move through court. Charges may be amended, reduced, or dismissed.

The listed information reflects the jail record available on July 28, 2026. It should be checked against later court filings.

Case Assigned to District Court

The case was assigned to District Court. No hearing date appeared in the booking information.

A felony label appears beside the charge in the jail record. The final charge level may depend on court filings.

Prosecutors must prove any criminal charge beyond a reasonable doubt. A jail booking does not establish guilt.

Mulligan is presumed innocent unless convicted in court. Court records may later include added details or changed charges.

Readers can review Minnesota’s DWI law through the Minnesota Revisor of Statutes.

More local government information is available through the Pennington County website.
