Moorhead (trfnews.i234.me)<\/a> \u2013 Jastin Raymond Michael Ross, 19, was booked into Clay County Jail on Wednesday, October 21, 2026.<\/p>\n

The official Clay County inmate roster records his booking at 7:23 p.m.<\/p>\n

The Clay County Sheriff’s Office is listed as the arresting agency.<\/p>\n

The jail record lists one allegation involving fifth-degree criminal sexual conduct and nonconsensual sexual penetration.<\/p>\n

Fifth-Degree Criminal Sexual Conduct Allegation<\/h2>\n

According to the Clay County booking record, Ross is listed under “CSC – 5th Degree – Penetration – Nonconsensual.”<\/p>\n

The allegation falls under Minnesota’s criminal sexual conduct laws.<\/p>\n

However, the jail listing does not describe the reported incident.<\/p>\n

It also does not identify the alleged victim or explain the circumstances surrounding the allegation.<\/p>\n

No information about the alleged offense date appears in the supplied booking record.<\/p>\n

The listing also does not establish whether additional allegations are under investigation.<\/p>\n

What Minnesota Law Says<\/h2>\n

Minnesota Statute 609.3451 addresses criminal sexual conduct in the fifth degree.<\/p>\n

Subdivision 1 applies to nonconsensual sexual penetration.<\/p>\n

Under Minnesota law, a violation of this provision is classified as a felony.<\/p>\n

A conviction under the basic felony provision can carry up to two years in prison.<\/p>\n

The law also permits a fine of up to $10,000, or both penalties.<\/p>\n

Certain qualifying previous convictions can increase the maximum possible sentence.<\/p>\n

However, the booking record does not identify any qualifying previous conviction or enhanced allegation.<\/p>\n

These are possible statutory penalties, not a sentence imposed against Ross.<\/p>\n
