The supplied booking record does not identify the substance allegedly involved.<\/p>\n

It also does not state the alleged amount of the controlled substance.<\/p>\n

Penalties Depend on Case Details<\/h2>\n

Minnesota law provides different penalty levels for fifth-degree drug possession.<\/p>\n

Very small amounts can qualify as a gross misdemeanor in some first-offense cases.<\/p>\n

Other violations under the statute can carry felony-level penalties.<\/p>\n

The maximum sentence for those offenses can reach five years in prison.<\/p>\n

A maximum fine of $10,000 can also apply.<\/p>\n

The supplied information does not provide enough facts to determine Dufner’s possible penalty level.<\/p>\n

Any sentence would depend on the case facts and prior record.<\/p>\n

Cass County Jail Booking<\/h2>\n

The supplied record does not list a bond amount or court date.<\/p>\n

It also does not include a criminal complaint or probable cause statement.<\/p>\n

No police officer names are included in this report.<\/p>\n

A jail booking does not establish guilt.<\/p>\n

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

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