Booking Information<\/h2>\n

The jail record lists Brein as five feet, eight inches tall.<\/p>\n

His listed weight is 145 pounds. The record lists red hair and brown eyes.<\/p>\n

The custody record showed a bail or fine amount of $0.00.<\/p>\n

That figure may not reflect later court orders or updated release conditions.<\/p>\n

No court date was shown in the information available for this report.<\/p>\n

Court schedules may change as prosecutors review the case and new documents are filed.<\/p>\n

Case Remains Pending<\/h2>\n

The booking information did not describe the traffic stop or the evidence supporting the charge.<\/p>\n

It also did not identify any plea entered by Brein.<\/p>\n

A jail booking records a person\u2019s entry into custody. It does not establish guilt.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors must prove the charge beyond a reasonable doubt before a conviction can occur.<\/p>\n

Brein may challenge the charge and evidence during the court process.<\/p>\n

Updated custody details may appear through the Beltrami County inmate search<\/a>.<\/p>\n

General jail information is available from the Beltrami County Adult Corrections Center<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Future court filings may provide hearing dates and more information about the allegation.<\/p>\n
