Krabbenhoft, 51, was booked into Otter Tail County Jail on Monday, November 2, 2026.<\/p>\n<p>The supplied jail booking record lists three driving while impaired entries involving alcohol.<\/p>\n<p>The allegations include driving under the influence of alcohol and having an alcohol concentration of 0.08 within two hours.<\/p>\n<p>The third entry identifies the alleged offense as fourth-degree driving while impaired.<\/p>\n<p>All three entries are marked as misdemeanor-level offenses with an active status in the supplied record.<\/p>\n<h2>Three DWI-Related Entries Listed<\/h2>\n<p>According to the supplied Otter Tail County Jail booking information, Krabbenhoft has the following listed allegations:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>169A.20.1(1)<\/strong> \u2013 Operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol.<\/li>\n<li><strong>169A.20.1(5)<\/strong> \u2013 Operating a motor vehicle with an alcohol concentration of 0.08 or higher within two hours.<\/li>\n<li><strong>169A.27.1<\/strong> \u2013 Fourth-degree driving while impaired.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Each entry is marked with an &#8220;M&#8221; classification, indicating a misdemeanor.<\/p>\n<p>The booking information does not describe the circumstances surrounding the arrest.<\/p>\n<p>It also does not identify where the alleged driving offense occurred.<\/p>\n<h2>What Fourth-Degree DWI Means in Minnesota<\/h2>\n<p>Under <a href=\"https:\/\/www.revisor.mn.gov\/statutes\/2026\/cite\/169A.27\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Minnesota Statute 169A.27<\/a>, fourth-degree DWI is classified as a misdemeanor offense.<\/p>\n<p>This classification applies to qualifying violations of Minnesota&#8217;s impaired driving law.<\/p>\n<p>The charge is generally associated with cases that do not meet the requirements for a more serious DWI classification.<\/p>\n<p>A misdemeanor conviction can result in fines, possible jail time, and other consequences under Minnesota law.<\/p>\n<p>Any sentence would depend on the court&#8217;s findings and the circumstances of the case.<\/p>\n<h2>Alcohol Concentration Allegation<\/h2>\n<p>Another listed allegation involves an alcohol concentration of 0.08 or higher within two hours of driving.<\/p>\n<p>Under <a href=\"https:\/\/www.revisor.mn.gov\/statutes\/2026\/cite\/169A.20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Minnesota Statute 169A.20<\/a>, this alcohol concentration can support a DWI allegation.<\/p>\n<p>The statute also prohibits driving while under the influence of alcohol.<\/p>\n<p>These are separate legal grounds for alleging impaired driving.<\/p>\n<p>The supplied jail record does not provide Krabbenhoft&#8217;s exact alcohol concentration.<\/p>\n<p>It also does not identify whether breath, blood, or another testing method was used.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_71335\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-71335\"
