WARREN, Minn.<\/strong> (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2014 Edward Lee Langaas, 46, was listed as booked into Marshall County Jail on October 27, 2026.<\/p>\n

The official jail roster lists a warrant notation and a fifth-degree controlled substance possession allegation.<\/p>\n

The booking identifies Kittson as the agency associated with the entry.<\/p>\n

The available information does not explain the warrant or identify where the alleged drug offense occurred.<\/p>\n

Fifth-Degree Drug Possession Allegation<\/h2>\n

Langaas’s booking entry cites Minnesota Statute 152.025, subdivision 2(a)(1).<\/p>\n

The law covers certain unlawful possession offenses involving controlled substances in Schedules I, II, III, and IV.<\/p>\n

However, the statute excludes certain cannabis products and residual drug amounts found in paraphernalia.<\/p>\n

Readers can review the full law through the Minnesota Revisor of Statutes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

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

It also provides no quantity, laboratory results, or description of a search.<\/p>\n

No information about a traffic stop, search warrant, or other investigation was included.<\/p>\n

Warrant Listed in Jail Record<\/h2>\n

The official booking entry also includes the word “WARRANT.”<\/p>\n

However, the available information does not identify the issuing court or explain the warrant’s purpose.<\/p>\n

It does not establish whether the warrant concerns the listed drug allegation or another matter.<\/p>\n

The record also does not provide a court file number or details about any scheduled appearance.<\/p>\n

Possible Penalties Under Minnesota Law<\/h2>\n

Minnesota law provides different penalties for fifth-degree controlled substance possession offenses.<\/p>\n

Certain qualifying first offenses involving small amounts are classified as gross misdemeanors.<\/p>\n

Other violations can carry felony penalties of up to five years in prison.<\/p>\n

The law also allows fines of up to $10,000 for those felony offenses.<\/p>\n

These are possible penalties, not a sentence imposed on Langaas.<\/p>\n

The booking entry does not provide enough information to establish which penalty classification applies.<\/p>\n

Marshall County Jail Information<\/h2>\n

Marshall County Jail is located at 208 East Colvin Avenue in Warren, Minnesota.<\/p>\n

The facility operates under the Marshall County Sheriff’s Office<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The official jail roster identifies Langaas’s booking date as October 27, 2026.<\/p>\n

The roster was updated on October 29 and lists Langaas among its inmate entries.<\/p>\n

That listing does not establish his custody status after the update.<\/p>\n

The sheriff’s office advises readers to contact the department to confirm custody information.<\/p>\n

Court Records and Case Updates<\/h2>\n

Additional court documents may provide details about the alleged offense and listed warrant.<\/p>\n

Those documents may identify any formally filed charges, hearing dates, and other case information.<\/p>\n

Readers can search available public records through Minnesota Court Records Online<\/a>.<\/p>\n

However, pending criminal cases generally cannot be located using only a defendant’s name.<\/p>\n

A case number or another permitted search method may be needed.<\/p>\n

A jail booking is not proof that a crime occurred.<\/p>\n

Langaas is presumed innocent of the reported allegation unless proven guilty in court.<\/p>\n

TRF News will report additional verified information if it becomes available.<\/p>\n
