Crookston: Kelisa Hanks Booked on Property Charge<\/h2>\n

Polk County (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>)<\/strong> \u2014 Kelisa Jewels Hanks, 24, was booked into the Northwest Regional Corrections Center on June 17, 2026.<\/p>\n

The official jail roster lists one controlling charge against Hanks.<\/p>\n

The regional jail is located in Crookston.<\/p>\n

It serves Polk, Norman, and Red Lake counties.<\/p>\n

The roster was prepared on the morning of June 18.<\/p>\n

It lists June 17 as Hanks’ incarceration date.<\/p>\n

Charge Listed in Jail Record<\/h2>\n

The public roster identifies the charge as third-degree damage to property.<\/p>\n

It also marks the allegation as bias-related.<\/p>\n

The listed property loss ranges from $1 through $500.<\/p>\n

The charge is classified as a gross misdemeanor.<\/p>\n

The roster cites Minnesota Statute 609.595, subdivision 2(b)<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The jail record does not describe the damaged property.<\/p>\n

It also does not explain the events leading to the booking.<\/p>\n

No alleged victim is identified in the available roster.<\/p>\n

The record does not state which claimed bias factor applies.<\/p>\n

What Minnesota Law Says<\/h2>\n

Minnesota law covers intentional property damage valued at $500 or less under this provision.<\/p>\n

The law also requires an alleged motive tied to protected traits or associations.<\/p>\n

Those categories include race, religion, sex, disability, national origin, age, and other listed traits.<\/p>\n

A conviction may bring up to 364 days in jail.<\/p>\n

The maximum fine is $3,000.<\/p>\n

A court may also impose both penalties.<\/p>\n

Those are maximum penalties and do not predict any case result.<\/p>\n

Booking Is Not a Conviction<\/h2>\n

A jail booking is not a conviction.<\/p>\n

The roster only shows Hanks as being held on the listed charge.<\/p>\n

It does not prove that a crime occurred.<\/p>\n

Hanks is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.<\/p>\n

Charges and custody status can change as the case moves forward.<\/p>\n

The NWRCC says its local inmate roster<\/a> is updated weekday mornings.<\/p>\n

Readers can check the official inmate roster for later custody information.<\/p>\n

The Polk County District Court handles criminal cases filed in the county.<\/p>\n

Public court records can provide later case filings and hearing information.<\/p>\n

Court dates and case details may change.<\/p>\n

Readers should rely on official court records<\/a> for the latest updates.<\/p>\n
