It does not provide a court file number.<\/p>\n<p>The record also does not describe where the reported incident happened. No details were provided about events leading to the arrest.<\/p>\n<p>No victim information was included in the booking details.

State law defines that term using several possible injury types.<\/p>\n<p>Those injuries may include a temporary but substantial disfigurement. They may also include a fracture or substantial loss of bodily function.<\/p>\n<p>The statute allows a sentence of up to five years in prison. It also allows a fine of up to $10,000.<\/p>\n<p>Those are statutory maximum penalties. They do not indicate the likely outcome in Stewart\u2019s case.<\/p>\n<p>The complete statute is available through the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.revisor.mn.gov\/statutes\/cite\/609.223\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Minnesota Revisor of Statutes<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Case Information May Change<\/h2>\n<p>A jail booking shows that a person entered custody. It does not prove that the listed offense occurred.<\/p>\n<p>Prosecutors may review reports before making final charging decisions. Charges may be changed, reduced, or dismissed during that process.<\/p>\n<p>Court records may later provide more information about the allegation. They may also show release conditions and future hearing dates.<\/p>\n<p>Readers can visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beckercountymn.gov\/dept\/sheriff\/jail.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Becker County Jail website<\/a> for official facility information.<\/p>\n<h2>Presumption of Innocence<\/h2>\n<p>Casey Leroy Stewart is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
