Detroit Lakes<\/strong> (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2014 A Detroit Lakes woman faces two felony charges following an investigation into a recorded jail phone call.<\/p>\n

Jazzmine Jade Yunker, 24, is accused of discussing a plan to seriously injure another woman.<\/p>\n

The alleged plan involved Steven Lee Larson, who was being held at the Becker County Jail.<\/p>\n

Yunker faces charges of threats of violence and conspiracy involving third-degree assault.<\/p>\n

The allegations appear in Becker County District Court case number 03-CR-26-2084.<\/p>\n

Jail Phone Call Sparks Investigation<\/h2>\n

According to the criminal complaint, investigators reviewed a recorded jail call on October 10, 2026.<\/p>\n

The call reportedly involved Larson and Yunker discussing a woman Larson believed had taken some of his clothing.<\/p>\n

Larson was reportedly angry because the woman had been allowed inside his apartment.<\/p>\n

At approximately five minutes into the recording, Larson allegedly began discussing plans to harm her.<\/p>\n

He asked Yunker whether the woman could be located.<\/p>\n

Yunker reportedly provided information about places where the woman could usually be found.<\/p>\n

The complaint says Yunker indicated she agreed with Larson’s intentions.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors Describe Alleged Assault Plan<\/h2>\n

According to court documents, Larson suggested Yunker take the woman for a drive.<\/p>\n

He allegedly proposed bringing her to a lake access, where others could physically attack her.<\/p>\n

Larson reportedly told Yunker he needed someone else to carry out the assault.<\/p>\n

He also asked Yunker to provide advance notice so he could coordinate with other people.<\/p>\n

The complaint alleges Yunker agreed to the proposed arrangement.<\/p>\n

Conversation Includes Discussion of Serious Injuries<\/h2>\n

Investigators reported that Larson believed the proposed attack could send the woman to the hospital.<\/p>\n

Yunker allegedly responded that she supported the plan, provided the woman was not killed.<\/p>\n

Larson reportedly said he did not believe the attack would go that far.<\/p>\n

He also allegedly wanted the woman to know he was responsible.<\/p>\n

The conversation later shifted toward identifying the woman’s boyfriend.<\/p>\n

Yunker reportedly provided the boyfriend’s name, which Larson said he was writing down.<\/p>\n

The supplied complaint does not establish that the planned assault actually occurred.<\/p>\n

Two Felony Charges Filed<\/h2>\n

Yunker faces one felony count of threats of violence under Minnesota Statute 609.713<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The second count is labeled third-degree assault involving substantial bodily harm.<\/p>\n

However, its description alleges conspiracy to commit assault, rather than a completed attack.<\/p>\n

That count references Minnesota Statute 609.223<\/a> and the state’s conspiracy statute<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The complaint lists a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a $10,000 fine for each count.<\/p>\n

The conspiracy statute may affect the applicable sentencing limit for the second count.<\/p>\n

Becker County Court Proceedings<\/h2>\n

The complaint is filed as a warrant matter in Minnesota’s Seventh Judicial District.<\/p>\n

The supplied document does not establish whether the warrant was served or whether Yunker entered a plea.<\/p>\n

Readers can search case number 03-CR-26-2084<\/strong> through Minnesota Court Records Online<\/a>.<\/p>\n

All charges remain allegations unless proven in court.<\/p>\n

Yunker is presumed innocent unless proven guilty.<\/p>\n
