It does not list a time or location.<\/p>\n<p>No details were provided about how long Reierson was allegedly outside custody.

However, no hearing date appears in the supplied booking record.<\/p>\n<p>Court schedules can change after a person enters custody.

It also does not show a plea.<\/p>\n<h2>Charge Remains an Allegation<\/h2>\n<p>A jail booking does not establish guilt. The felony charge remains an allegation unless proven in court.<\/p>\n<p>Reierson is presumed innocent under the law. Any outcome will depend on evidence and future court rulings.<\/p>\n<p>This report is based only on the available jail entry. It does not include claims beyond the public booking information.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m Adrian Cole reporting for <a href=\"https:\/\/trfnews.i234.me\">TRF News<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Copyright 2026 TRF News.
