The booking lists two driving while impaired allegations, including a felony first-degree DWI offense.<\/p>\n
The felony allegation cites a previous felony DWI conviction as the basis for the offense level.<\/p>\n
The second entry involves allegedly operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol.<\/p>\n
Both allegations appear under jail case number 26000927.<\/p>\n
Felony First-Degree DWI Allegation<\/h2>\n
The most serious listed allegation involves first-degree driving while impaired under Minnesota Statute 169A.24, subdivision 1(2).<\/p>\n
This provision applies when a person accused of a new DWI offense has a previous felony DWI conviction.<\/p>\n
The Beltrami County Jail roster classifies Williams’ first-degree DWI allegation as a felony.<\/p>\n
Minnesota law considers first-degree DWI the most serious standard criminal DWI offense level.<\/p>\n
A conviction can carry a prison sentence of up to seven years.<\/p>\n
The law also allows a fine of up to $14,000, or both penalties.<\/p>\n
Additional mandatory sentencing rules can apply to felony DWI convictions.<\/p>\n
These penalties are possible legal consequences, not a sentence imposed against Williams.<\/p>\n
The supplied booking record does not identify the date or details of the previous felony conviction.<\/p>\n
Alcohol-Related DWI Allegation<\/h2>\n
The second entry alleges operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol.<\/p>\n
That allegation falls under Minnesota Statute 169A.20, subdivision 1(1).<\/p>\n
The jail roster classifies this entry as a gross misdemeanor.<\/p>\n
Under Minnesota law, driving while impaired can involve alcohol-related impairment, even without a specific alcohol concentration listed.<\/p>\n
The provided booking information does not include blood alcohol test results.<\/p>\n
It also does not describe Williams’ reported driving behavior or the location of the alleged incident.<\/p>\n
No details were provided about a traffic stop, crash, or possible injuries.<\/p>\n
