Fergus Falls (trfnews.i234.me)<\/a> \u2013 Joshua David Kampsen, 35, was booked into Otter Tail County Jail on October 24, 2026.<\/p>\n

The supplied jail record lists two gross misdemeanor allegations involving obstruction of legal process.<\/p>\n

Both entries are marked active, according to the booking information.<\/p>\n

The allegations involve interfering with a peace officer and obstructing the lawful execution of legal process.<\/p>\n

Two Obstruction Allegations Listed<\/h2>\n

The first listed offense falls under Minnesota Statute 609.50, subdivision 1(2).<\/p>\n

This provision addresses intentionally obstructing, resisting, or interfering with a peace officer performing official duties.<\/p>\n

The second allegation falls under Minnesota Statute 609.50, subdivision 1(1).<\/p>\n

This provision addresses intentionally interfering with the lawful execution of criminal or civil legal process.<\/p>\n

Both offenses are classified as gross misdemeanors in the supplied jail record.<\/p>\n

However, the record does not describe the actions that led to either allegation.<\/p>\n

It also does not explain whether both entries resulted from the same incident or separate events.<\/p>\n

What Minnesota Law Says<\/h2>\n

Minnesota Statute 609.50 establishes penalties for certain acts that interfere with legal proceedings and public safety duties.<\/p>\n

The possible punishment depends on the circumstances surrounding the offense.<\/p>\n

Under the gross misdemeanor provision, a conviction can carry up to 364 days in jail.<\/p>\n

The law also allows a fine of up to $3,000, or both penalties.<\/p>\n

The gross misdemeanor provision addresses conduct involving force, violence, or threats when more serious circumstances do not apply.<\/p>\n

However, the supplied booking record does not establish whether force or threats were involved.<\/p>\n

These penalties are possible legal consequences, not a sentence imposed against Kampsen.<\/p>\n
