The supplied booking information lists the booking time as 2:04 p.m.<\/p>\n

The public lockup report also lists an incident number connected with the case.<\/p>\n

Minnesota Law<\/h2>\n

Minnesota Statute 609.2247<\/a> covers domestic assault by strangulation.<\/p>\n

The law applies when an alleged assault involves a family or household member.<\/p>\n

It defines strangulation as intentionally blocking normal breathing or blood flow.<\/p>\n

The alleged act may involve pressure to the throat or neck.<\/p>\n

It may also involve blocking the nose or mouth.<\/p>\n

A conviction can bring up to three years in prison.<\/p>\n

The law also allows a fine of up to $5,000.<\/p>\n

A court may impose both penalties after a conviction.<\/p>\n

Case Status<\/h2>\n

A jail booking records an arrest and the allegations listed by authorities.<\/p>\n

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

Nass is presumed innocent unless prosecutors prove the charge in court.<\/p>\n

The charge could be changed, reduced, or dismissed during the legal process.<\/p>\n

Future court records may list hearing dates and additional case details.<\/p>\n

Custody status may also change after a hearing, release, or transfer.<\/p>\n
