href=\"https:\/\/trfnews.i234.me\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">trfnews.i234.me<\/a>)<\/strong> \u2014 Jon Michael Hruby, 29, faces two felony charges involving Minnesota&#8217;s predatory offender registration requirements.<\/p>\n<p>According to a Kittson County criminal complaint, the allegations involve changes to Hruby&#8217;s employment and residence.<\/p>\n<p>Investigators allege Hruby failed to provide required updates to law enforcement during September 2026.<\/p>\n<p>The case was filed in Kittson County District Court under court file number 35-CR-26-130.<\/p>\n<p>Both felony counts carry possible prison sentences and fines if a conviction occurs.<\/p>\n<h2>First Charge Involves Employment Information<\/h2>\n<p>The first charge concerns an alleged failure to update employment information between August 31 and September 10, 2026.<\/p>\n<p>According to the complaint, investigators conducted a compliance check at Hruby&#8217;s listed Lake Bronson residence on September 10.<\/p>\n<p>Hruby was not at the property when authorities arrived.<\/p>\n<p>Investigators contacted a supervisor at Podco LLC in Lancaster, where Hruby had previously reported working.<\/p>\n<p>The supervisor told investigators that Hruby&#8217;s employment had ended on August 31, 2026.<\/p>\n<p>The complaint alleges authorities found no documentation showing Hruby reported the employment change.<\/p>\n<p>Investigators later contacted Hruby on September 12.<\/p>\n<p>According to the complaint, Hruby said he was stressed while searching for another job.<\/p>\n<h2>Second Felony Charge Involves Address Change<\/h2>\n<p>The second charge concerns an alleged registration violation between September 14 and September 16, 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Investigators alleged Hruby left his registered Lake Bronson residence without providing the required notice.<\/p>\n<p>The property owner reportedly told investigators that Hruby had been told to leave during that period.<\/p>\n<p>According to the complaint, the property owner did not know where Hruby planned to go.<\/p>\n<p>Investigators also reported that Hruby&#8217;s camper and pickup truck were no longer at the property.<\/p>\n<p>The complaint contains conflicting dates concerning when those vehicles were first observed missing.<\/p>\n<p>Investigators alleged Hruby had not notified the Kittson County Sheriff&#8217;s Office about his move.<\/p>\n<p>The document does not establish his current residence or custody status.<\/p>\n<h2>Previous Conviction and Registration Duties<\/h2>\n<p>The complaint identifies a previous conviction involving solicitation of a child through electronic communication.<\/p>\n<p>That conviction occurred on August 18, 2020, in Marshall County case 45-CR-17-286.<\/p>\n<p>The complaint states Hruby was discharged from probation on February 26, 2025.<\/p>\n<p>It also states he signed a registration verification form on October 3, 2025.<\/p>\n<p>That form outlined duties involving employment, addresses, and other required information.<\/p>\n<p>Investigators cited the signed form when describing Hruby&#8217;s knowledge of those duties.<\/p>\n<h2>Possible Penalties Under Minnesota Law<\/h2>\n<p>Both charges fall under <a href=\"https:\/\/www.revisor.mn.gov\/statutes\/cite\/243.166\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Minnesota Statute 243.166<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The law requires qualifying offenders to keep certain registration details updated.<\/p>\n<p>Those details include required residence information, employment addresses, and other identifying information.<\/p>\n<p>Knowingly failing to fulfill registration duties can result in a felony conviction.<\/p>\n<p>Each listed charge carries a possible maximum sentence of five years in prison.<\/p>\n<p>Each also carries a possible fine of up to $10,000, or both penalties.<\/p>\n<p>These are possible penalties, not sentences imposed against Hruby in this case.<\/p>\n<h2>Kittson County Court Proceedings<\/h2>\n<p>The criminal complaint lists two separate felony counts and includes a warrant designation.<\/p>\n<p>The prosecutor&#8217;s file number is 26000129.<\/p>\n<p>The complaint does not provide a final ruling, plea, or sentencing outcome.<\/p>\n<p>These Kittson County allegations are separate from Hruby&#8217;s Pennington County registration case.<\/p>\n<p>Hruby is presumed innocent of the new allegations unless proven guilty in court.<\/p>\n<p>Readers can find information through the <a
