THIEF RIVER FALLS, Minn.<\/strong> (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2014 A supplied jail entry names Tanisha Ann Fineday, 49, in a drug-related DWI case.<\/p>\n

The entry associates Fineday with Pennington County Jail and lists Minnesota Statute 169A.20, subdivision 1(7).<\/p>\n

The information labels the alleged offense with an “F,” indicating a felony classification in the supplied listing. However, that classification has not been independently confirmed through court records.<\/p>\n

Fineday Listed in Drug-Related DWI Case<\/h2>\n

The entry identifies Fineday’s inmate type as “BELTR.” It also provides physical details but does not specify a booking date.<\/p>\n

Fineday is listed as 5 feet, 6 inches tall and weighing 135 pounds. The entry describes her hair as black and her eyes as brown.<\/p>\n

The listed charge concerns operating a vehicle with certain controlled substances or their metabolites in the body.<\/p>\n

No specific drug was identified in the information provided. The entry also contains no details about the alleged traffic incident.<\/p>\n

What Minnesota’s Drug DWI Law Says<\/h2>\n

Minnesota Statute 169A.20<\/a> addresses driving while impaired by alcohol, drugs, and certain other substances.<\/p>\n

Subdivision 1(7) covers driving with any amount of specified Schedule I or Schedule II controlled substances or their metabolites.<\/p>\n

The provision excludes certain cannabis and hemp products, which Minnesota law addresses separately.<\/p>\n

The law concerns the presence of covered substances, rather than requiring proof of a specific alcohol concentration.<\/p>\n

Separate Beltrami County Booking Record<\/h2>\n

A separate Beltrami County jail listing names Tanisha Fineday in a drug-related DWI case.<\/p>\n

That record reports an October 16, 2026, booking under the same Minnesota statute.<\/p>\n

However, the Beltrami listing classifies that offense as a gross misdemeanor rather than a felony.<\/p>\n

The available information does not explain the different classifications or establish whether both entries concern the same booking.<\/p>\n

Additional records would be needed to confirm the applicable offense level and any connection between the entries.<\/p>\n

Jail Records and Court Information<\/h2>\n

The supplied Pennington County entry does not provide a scheduled hearing, release date, or bond amount.<\/p>\n

It also does not identify where the alleged driving incident occurred.<\/p>\n

The Pennington County Sheriff’s Office<\/a> maintains a public in-custody search for jail information.<\/p>\n

Readers can also check Minnesota Court Records Online<\/a> for available case filings and hearing information.<\/p>\n

Those records may provide more details about the allegations, court proceedings, and any future case developments.<\/p>\n

Criminal Charge Does Not Mean Conviction<\/h2>\n

A jail booking entry does not establish guilt or confirm that someone has been convicted of a crime.<\/p>\n

Fineday is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.<\/p>\n

Any further developments will depend on verified court records and official information.<\/p>\n
