Fergus Falls Jail Books Jeffrey Skovholt<\/h2>\n

FERGUS FALLS<\/strong> (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2014 Jeffrey Neal Skovholt, 54, was booked into the Otter Tail County Jail on July 11, 2026.<\/p>\n

The supplied jail record lists four active gross misdemeanor charges.<\/p>\n

Three allegations involve driving while impaired.<\/p>\n

The fourth concerns a collision with an unattended vehicle.<\/p>\n

Booking records show accusations made during the early court process.<\/p>\n

They do not prove guilt.<\/p>\n

DWI Allegations Listed<\/h2>\n

Skovholt faces one count of operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol.<\/p>\n

A second count alleges an alcohol concentration of 0.08 or higher within two hours.<\/p>\n

Minnesota Statute 169A.20<\/a> covers both types of alleged DWI conduct.<\/p>\n

The law applies to driving, operating, or controlling a motor vehicle.<\/p>\n

The booking record also lists third-degree DWI with one aggravating factor.<\/p>\n

Minnesota Statute 169A.26<\/a> classifies that offense as a gross misdemeanor.<\/p>\n

The supplied information does not identify the alleged aggravating factor.<\/p>\n

It also provides no alcohol test result or incident location.<\/p>\n

Unattended Vehicle Collision Charge<\/h2>\n

A fourth charge involves an alleged collision with an unattended vehicle.<\/p>\n

Minnesota Statute 169.09<\/a> requires drivers to stop after certain collisions.<\/p>\n

Drivers must also provide information or notify the vehicle owner.<\/p>\n

The booking description states that the charge concerns required notification.<\/p>\n

No additional crash details were included.<\/p>\n

The record does not state whether anyone was injured.<\/p>\n

It also does not list the reported property damage.<\/p>\n

Public Records and Court Process<\/h2>\n

The Otter Tail County Jail<\/a> publishes an online custody list.<\/p>\n

The county says inmate information is public data.<\/p>\n

The jail record identifies Skovholt\u2019s booking number as 002600000623.<\/p>\n

Each listed charge was marked active.<\/p>\n

A booking does not equal a conviction.<\/p>\n

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

Charges can change as prosecutors review reports and other evidence.<\/p>\n

Court filings may later provide more details.<\/p>\n

Readers can check Minnesota Court Records Online<\/a> for public case information.<\/p>\n

Record availability may depend on the case\u2019s filing status.<\/p>\n
