WHITE EARTH, Minn.<\/strong> (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2013 A White Earth woman was charged with a gross misdemeanor after a Becker County deputy stopped her vehicle and discovered her driving privileges had been canceled.<\/p>\n

Christina Lorraine Wilson<\/strong> was charged with driving after cancellation as inimical to public safety following a May 25, 2024, traffic stop.<\/p>\n

According to a criminal complaint filed in Becker County District Court, the incident began shortly before 2 a.m.<\/p>\n

Deputy Notices Vehicle Without License Plate Light<\/h2>\n

At approximately 1:52 a.m., a Becker County deputy was patrolling eastbound on County Highway 34 in White Earth.<\/p>\n

The deputy observed a vehicle traveling westbound in the opposite direction.<\/p>\n

As the vehicle passed, the deputy noticed that its rear license plate light was not working.<\/p>\n

According to court documents, the deputy turned around and followed the vehicle.<\/p>\n

The vehicle eventually traveled southbound on County Highway 21.<\/p>\n

The deputy activated his emergency lights and conducted a traffic stop.<\/p>\n

Driver Unable to Produce License<\/h2>\n

During the stop, the deputy approached the vehicle and identified the driver as Wilson.<\/p>\n

According to the complaint, the deputy explained why she had been stopped and requested her driver’s license.<\/p>\n

Wilson was unable to provide a driver’s license.<\/p>\n

The deputy contacted dispatch to check her driving status through law enforcement records.<\/p>\n

Dispatch reportedly confirmed that Wilson’s driving privileges had been canceled as inimical to public safety.<\/p>\n

Woman Arrested and Taken to Becker County Jail<\/h2>\n

After receiving confirmation from dispatch, the deputy informed Wilson that she was under arrest.<\/p>\n

Wilson was subsequently transported to the Becker County Jail.<\/p>\n

The complaint does not report a crash, injuries, or allegations of impaired driving during this particular traffic stop.<\/p>\n

The charge concerns operating a motor vehicle while driving privileges were canceled under Minnesota law.<\/p>\n

Gross Misdemeanor Charge Filed<\/h2>\n

Prosecutors charged Wilson with driving after cancellation as inimical to public safety under Minnesota Statute 171.24, subdivision 5<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Under the law, a person may face criminal penalties for driving after receiving notice that their driving privileges were canceled or denied.<\/p>\n

The offense is classified as a gross misdemeanor.<\/p>\n

A conviction carries a maximum possible penalty of 364 days in jail, a $3,000 fine, or both<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The charge does not establish that Wilson was driving dangerously during the stop.<\/p>\n

Case Filed in Becker County Court<\/h2>\n

The case was filed in Minnesota’s Seventh Judicial District under court file number 03-CR-24-2085<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The criminal complaint lists a summons.<\/p>\n

The supplied complaint does not establish the case’s current disposition.<\/p>\n

The allegations in the complaint are not proof of guilt. Any conviction or other final outcome would require confirmation from subsequent court records.<\/p>\n
