One provision applies to people convicted of qualifying crimes of violence.<\/p>\n

The law also covers qualifying convictions from other states or jurisdictions.<\/p>\n

It also does not identify the firearm or ammunition allegedly involved.<\/p>\n

No details about where the alleged possession occurred were included.<\/p>\n

Readers can review Minnesota Statute 624.713<\/a> online.<\/p>\n

Charge Carries Felony Classification<\/h2>\n

Minnesota law treats qualifying possession under the crime-of-violence provision as a felony.<\/p>\n

A conviction can carry up to 15 years in prison.<\/p>\n

The law also allows a fine of up to $30,000.<\/p>\n

A court could impose imprisonment, a fine, or both.<\/p>\n

Those are maximum penalties allowed under the statute.<\/p>\n

They do not represent a sentence for Kinney.<\/p>\n

The final outcome would depend on the facts and court proceedings.<\/p>\n

September 8 Booking<\/h2>\n

The Clay County Correctional Facility is located in Moorhead.<\/p>\n

The roster does not provide a detailed account of Kinney’s arrest.<\/p>\n

It also does not list a final court outcome.<\/p>\n

A jail booking and criminal charge do not establish guilt.<\/p>\n

Kinney is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.<\/p>\n

Charges can change as prosecutors review evidence and the case moves forward.<\/p>\n
