Supreme Court of Minnesota

State of Minnesota v. Korwin Lucio Balsley

August 28, 2024

Summary

The Supreme Court held that under Minn. Stat. § 609.3455, subd. 3a, a “previously committed” predatory crime is one committed before the fact‑finder’s sentencing‑related determination that the offender is a danger to public safety, and therefore affirmed the lower court’s sentencing enhancement.
