Beltrami County<\/strong> (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2014 Joe Risland was booked into the Beltrami County Jail on April 16, 2026, according to booking information tied to a pending District Court case.<\/p>\n

The jail record lists two charges under case number 24320824. The first charge is a felony. It alleges Risland operated a motor vehicle with any amount of a Schedule I or II drug, or its metabolite, in his system. The booking entry says cannabis and hemp were not included in that charge description.<\/p>\n

The second charge is listed as a gross misdemeanor. It alleges fifth-degree drug possession involving a Schedule I, II, III, or IV substance, or drug paraphernalia residue, not cannabis or hemp. The case is listed for District Court.<\/p>\n

Risland is listed as 6 feet tall and 190 pounds. The booking record lists blond hair and blue eyes. Bail was listed at $0.00 at the time of booking. No court date was shown in the details provided.<\/p>\n

Charges Listed in the Case<\/h2>\n

The felony DWI-related count is listed under Minnesota Statute 169A.20<\/a>. That section covers impaired driving offenses, including driving with certain controlled substances or metabolites in the body.<\/p>\n

The second count is listed under Minnesota Statute 152.025<\/a>. That section covers fifth-degree controlled substance crimes, including some possession offenses.<\/p>\n

The booking record gives only a basic look at the case. It lists the booking date, physical description, charge language, and court branch. It does not include a police narrative. It also does not explain where the stop or arrest happened.<\/p>\n

That means the public record is still limited. More details may appear later in court filings. A first hearing may also add facts about the case.<\/p>\n

What Happens Next<\/h2>\n

The case is expected to move through Beltrami County District Court<\/a>. Readers can also review custody details through the Beltrami County inmate locator<\/a>.<\/p>\n

At this stage, the charges are allegations only. Joe Risland is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court. Jail records are only a first public snapshot of a case.<\/p>\n

TRF News will continue to watch for a court date, future filings, and any added details released through the court system.<\/p>\n
