href=\"https:\/\/trfnews.i234.me\">trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2014 A jail booking dated October 26, 2026, lists Brian Keith Frazier, 55.<\/p>\n<p>The booking information identifies Frazier by name and gives his birth date as July 31, 1971.<\/p>\n<p>It lists a felony-level, third-degree controlled substance possession allegation.<\/p>\n<p>The short booking description mentions three grams or more of cocaine, heroin, or methamphetamine.<\/p>\n<p>The entry does not identify which substance is involved in his case.<\/p>\n<p>It also does not provide a confirmed drug weight or an arrest location.<\/p>\n<h2>October 26 Booking Details<\/h2>\n<p>The record cites Minnesota Statute 152.023, subdivision 2(a)(1), as the listed offense code.<\/p>\n<p>That citation is important because the current law uses different wording from the short booking description.<\/p>\n<p>Under the current statute, subdivision 2(a)(1) covers 10 grams or more of certain narcotics.<\/p>\n<p>Heroin and fentanyl are excluded from that specific provision.<\/p>\n<p>Another part of the same law addresses certain heroin and fentanyl amounts.<\/p>\n<p>The booking summary alone does not explain the difference between its brief label and the cited statute.<\/p>\n<p>A criminal complaint or updated court record may provide more detail.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_61309\"

in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.revisor.mn.gov\/statutes\/cite\/152.023\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Minnesota Statute 152.023<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The rules cover several forms of possession and sale, with different conditions for each offense.<\/p>\n<p>A conviction under this statute can carry up to 20 years in prison.<\/p>\n<p>The law also allows a fine of up to $250,000.<\/p>\n<p>Those figures describe legal maximums, not a sentence imposed in this case.<\/p>\n<p>No sentence or conviction is established by the booking entry.<\/p>\n<p>The reported charge remains an allegation unless proven in court.<\/p>\n<h2>Questions About the Case Remain<\/h2>\n<p>The supplied record does not state whether Frazier has appeared before a judge.<\/p>\n<p>It does not list a bail amount, attorney, or future hearing date.<\/p>\n<p>The record also does not describe the events leading to the booking.<\/p>\n<p>It would be inaccurate to assume an arrest site, search, or drug seizure from this limited information.<\/p>\n<p>A booking date cannot establish how long someone will remain in custody.<\/p>\n<p>Custody records may change after release, transfer, or further court action.<\/p>\n<h2>Where to Find Official Updates<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.communitycorrections-tccc.org\/index.asp?SEC=7AA2A95C-63E9-415B-9B67-C9E68D3D1F20&amp;Type=B_BASIC\"

target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Minnesota Court Records Online<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Court filings can help clarify the precise charge, hearing schedule, and eventual case outcome.<\/p>\n<p>The court website warns that pending criminal cases may not appear in searches by name.<\/p>\n<p>Readers should verify newer records before treating a booking summary as a final result.<\/p>\n<p>Frazier
