Another aggravating factor can involve an alcohol concentration of 0.16 or higher.<\/p>\n

A child passenger can also qualify under conditions established by state law.<\/p>\n

The booking information does not state which factors prosecutors may allege against Salinas.<\/p>\n

Charge Is a Gross Misdemeanor<\/h2>\n

Second-degree DWI is classified as a gross misdemeanor under Minnesota law.<\/p>\n

A gross misdemeanor can carry up to 364 days in jail.<\/p>\n

It can also carry a fine of up to $3,000.<\/p>\n

Those penalties apply only after a conviction.<\/p>\n

They do not represent a sentence against Salinas.<\/p>\n

DWI cases can also involve separate driver’s license or vehicle consequences.<\/p>\n

Those consequences depend on the facts and applicable state law.<\/p>\n

The charge against Salinas remains an allegation unless proven through the court process.<\/p>\n

The booking information does not provide a final court outcome.<\/p>\n

It also does not identify the specific evidence behind the DWI allegation.<\/p>\n
