Thief River Falls Inmate Held on Felony DWI Charge<\/h2>\n

THIEF RIVER FALLS<\/strong> (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2014 Scott Mulligan was booked into the Pennington County Jail on July 27, 2026.<\/p>\n

Jail records list a felony driving while impaired charge against Mulligan. The case is filed under number 263498.<\/p>\n

Felony DWI Charge Listed<\/h2>\n

The listed charge cites Minnesota Statute 169A.20, subdivision 1(5)<\/a>.<\/p>\n

That law covers alcohol concentrations of 0.08 or more.<\/p>\n

The measurement may be taken while driving or within two hours afterward.<\/p>\n

The booking record does not describe the traffic stop. It also does not list where the alleged offense happened.<\/p>\n

No court date was shown in the information provided.<\/p>\n

Booking Information<\/h2>\n

Jail records identify Mulligan as 6 feet, 2 inches tall. His listed weight is 187 pounds.<\/p>\n

The record describes his hair as gray and his eyes as brown.<\/p>\n

The jail entry showed a bail or fine amount of $0.00. That figure may mean no amount was entered.<\/p>\n

It should not be read as proof that release was approved. Release terms can change after a court review.<\/p>\n

The roster marks Mulligan\u2019s status as \u201cHold.\u201d It gives no further reason for that status.<\/p>\n

Booking records can change as cases move through court. Charges may be amended, reduced, or dismissed.<\/p>\n

The listed information reflects the jail record available on July 28, 2026. It should be checked against later court filings.<\/p>\n

Case Assigned to District Court<\/h2>\n

The case was assigned to District Court. No hearing date appeared in the booking information.<\/p>\n

A felony label appears beside the charge in the jail record. The final charge level may depend on court filings.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors must prove any criminal charge beyond a reasonable doubt. A jail booking does not establish guilt.<\/p>\n

Mulligan is presumed innocent unless convicted in court. Court records may later include added details or changed charges.<\/p>\n

More local government information is available through the Pennington County website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

TRF News will update this report when verified court information becomes available.<\/p>\n
