Ogema Man Charged in Registration Case<\/h2>\n

OGEMA<\/strong> (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2014 An Ogema man faces two felony charges involving Minnesota\u2019s predatory offender registration law.<\/p>\n

Shai Charles Baity, 29, is charged in Becker County District Court. The complaint also requests a warrant for his arrest.<\/p>\n

Baity is charged with knowingly failing to meet a registration requirement. He also faces a charge of intentionally providing false information.<\/p>\n

Each charge carries a possible prison sentence of up to five years. Each also carries a possible $10,000 fine.<\/p>\n

Verification Form Allegedly Not Returned<\/h2>\n

The complaint states Baity must register under Minnesota law because of a prior conviction.<\/p>\n

Authorities arrested Baity on April 13 for possible registration violations. Prosecutors did not file charges at that time.<\/p>\n

He was released from custody on April 14.<\/p>\n

Baity then registered an address on 295th Avenue in Ogema. He changed that address one day later.<\/p>\n

The new address was also located on 295th Avenue in Becker County.<\/p>\n

The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension<\/a> mailed a verification form there on May 1.<\/p>\n

The form was due May 15, according to the complaint.<\/p>\n

Authorities allege Baity did not sign or return the required form. He was listed as noncompliant beginning May 17.<\/p>\n

\"ShaiShai Charles Baity<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Resident Disputed Registered Address<\/h2>\n

Investigators visited one of Baity\u2019s previously registered addresses on June 5.<\/p>\n

A man at that home directed investigators to a neighboring residence.<\/p>\n

The woman living next door said Baity did not live at her home.<\/p>\n

She also said he had never stayed overnight there, according to the complaint.<\/p>\n

The woman confirmed her house number matched Baity\u2019s registered address.<\/p>\n

Authorities allege the statement showed Baity provided false address information.<\/p>\n

The reported conduct occurred between April 15 and June 10.<\/p>\n

The charges were filed under Minnesota Statute 243.166<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A criminal complaint contains allegations. Baity is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.<\/p>\n

Court records stated Baity\u2019s location was unknown when authorities requested the warrant.<\/p>\n
