Fergus Falls Jail Books Man on Assault Charge<\/h2>\n

Fergus Falls<\/strong> (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2014 David Allen Donley, 74, was booked at the Otter Tail County Jail.<\/p>\n

The booking occurred on Sunday, June 28, 2026. The jail record lists one active misdemeanor domestic assault charge.<\/p>\n

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

The listed offense falls under Minnesota Statute 609.2242, subdivision 1(1).<\/p>\n

The charge alleges an act intended to cause fear of immediate bodily harm or death. Minnesota law applies this section to a family or household member.<\/p>\n

The booking entry identifies Donley by name, age, and booking number. It lists his custody status as active in that record.<\/p>\n

Few Case Details Were Available<\/h2>\n

The supplied booking record does not describe the reported incident. It does not identify another person involved.<\/p>\n

The entry also does not provide a court date, bail amount, or case outcome. Those details may appear later in court records.<\/p>\n

Donley is accused of the listed offense. A jail booking does not mean a person has been convicted.<\/p>\n

All defendants are presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court. The charge may be changed, dismissed, or resolved later.<\/p>\n

Public Records Can Change<\/h2>\n

Otter Tail County says its online custody information is public data. The county may update or modify the information.<\/p>\n

Booking records often show an early stage in a criminal case. A record can change after a hearing or release.<\/p>\n

It can also change after a transfer or new court filing. Official court documents provide the most complete case information.<\/p>\n

Official Public Resources<\/h2>\n

Readers can review current custody information through the Otter Tail County Jail In Custody List<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The full domestic assault law is available through the Minnesota Revisor of Statutes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Public jail records can change as people are released or moved. Readers should check official records for the latest status.<\/p>\n

TRF News will update this report if more verified information becomes available.<\/p>\n
