Moorhead Jail Booking: Leff Faces 2nd-Degree DWI<\/h2>\n

Moorhead<\/strong> (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2014 Mitchell Adam Leff, 56, was recently booked into the Clay County Jail on a second-degree DWI charge.<\/p>\n

Becker County is listed as the arresting agency.<\/p>\n

The listed charge is second-degree driving while impaired with a test result of .08 or higher.<\/p>\n

The booking record does not describe the traffic stop or events leading to Leff’s arrest.<\/p>\n

Clay County Booking Information<\/h2>\n

No police officers or deputies are named in this report.<\/p>\n

Readers can review current public inmate information through the Clay County inmate roster<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The roster may change as inmates are released or cases move through court.<\/p>\n

Second-Degree DWI Charge<\/h2>\n

Minnesota law addresses second-degree driving while impaired under Minnesota Statute 169A.25<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The jail entry lists the charge as “2 Deg DWI Test .08 or Over.”<\/p>\n

TRF News is reporting that wording as provided in the booking information.<\/p>\n

The booking entry does not include a criminal complaint or detailed court filing.<\/p>\n

It also does not state whether Leff has entered a plea.<\/p>\n

Those documents may provide more information about the case when available.<\/p>\n

Court Process<\/h2>\n

A jail booking is not a finding of guilt.<\/p>\n

The listed charge remains an allegation unless proven in court or resolved through a guilty plea.<\/p>\n

Charges may be changed, dismissed, or amended as the case moves forward.<\/p>\n

Readers can search public records through Minnesota Court Records Online<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Court records can provide hearing dates and other case information when those records become public.<\/p>\n

TRF News will report further developments if additional verified information becomes available.<\/p>\n
