href=\"https:\/\/trfnews.i234.me\">trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2014 Deyjah Albertine Smith, 22, appears in booking information dated October 27, 2026.<\/p>\n<p>The listed allegation is misdemeanor domestic assault under Minnesota law.<\/p>\n<p>The entry identifies Smith&#8217;s birth date as May 7, 2004.<\/p>\n<p>It cites Minnesota Statute 609.2242, subdivision 1(2).<\/p>\n<p>That provision covers intentionally causing, or attempting to cause, bodily harm to a family or household member.<\/p>\n<p>The booking does not establish that Smith committed the alleged offense.<\/p>\n<h2>October 27 Booking Information<\/h2>\n<p>The supplied entry classifies the alleged offense as a misdemeanor.<\/p>\n<p>It does not describe the event that led to the booking.<\/p>\n<p>No time or location for the reported incident is included.<\/p>\n<p>The record also does not identify another person involved.<\/p>\n<p>It does not say whether someone was injured or received medical treatment.<\/p>\n<p>No police report or criminal complaint accompanied the information.<\/p>\n<p>Those missing details are important because a booking summary offers only a limited account.<\/p>\n<p>More facts could become available through public court filings.<\/p>\n<h2>How Minnesota Defines Domestic Assault<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.revisor.mn.gov\/statutes\/cite\/609.2242\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Minnesota Statute 609.2242<\/a> sets out the state&#8217;s domestic assault law.<\/p>\n<p>Subdivision 1 applies to alleged acts involving a family or household member.<\/p>\n<p>One part of the law addresses acts intended to cause fear of immediate harm.<\/p>\n<p>The provision cited in Smith&#8217;s entry concerns intentionally inflicting, or trying to inflict, bodily harm.<\/p>\n<p>The charge description does not by itself prove that an injury occurred.<\/p>\n<p>It also does not identify the relationship between the people involved.<\/p>\n<p>A misdemeanor charge is different from a gross-misdemeanor or felony domestic assault charge.<\/p>\n<p>The available entry specifically lists the misdemeanor offense.<\/p>\n<p>Any decision on guilt belongs to the court.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_61329\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-61329\" style=\"width: 240px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a
