The cited section addresses conduct intended to cause fear of immediate bodily harm or death.<\/p>\n

What Minnesota Law Says<\/h2>\n

Minnesota law classifies this listed offense as a misdemeanor.<\/p>\n

The statute covers two forms of alleged domestic assault.<\/p>\n

One involves conduct intended to cause fear of immediate harm or death.<\/p>\n

The other involves intentional bodily harm or an attempt to cause bodily harm.<\/p>\n

Only the first form appears in the booking information provided.<\/p>\n

Readers can review the full law through the Minnesota Revisor of Statutes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Booking Does Not Establish Guilt<\/h2>\n

A booking record documents entry into custody.<\/p>\n

It does not prove that the accused person committed a crime.<\/p>\n

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

Prosecutors must support any filed charge with evidence.<\/p>\n

A judge may later consider release conditions, bail, and future hearing dates.<\/p>\n

The available booking information does not show whether a formal complaint has been filed.<\/p>\n

It also does not provide the final outcome of the case.<\/p>\n

Polk County Jail Information<\/h2>\n

The Northwest Regional Corrections Center is located in Crookston.<\/p>\n

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

Official jail information is available through Tri-County Community Corrections<\/a>.<\/p>\n
