2022 NO-KNOCK WARRANT ANNUAL REPORT TO THE LEGISLATURE

 INTRODUCTION
No-knock search warrants are sought by Minnesota law enforcement when an agency believes there is an investigative or
safety reason to execute the warrant without prior notice, such as a knock on a door. As is the case with other search warrants,
no-knock warrant applications are granted or denied by a judge.

Minnesota statute 626.14, subdivision 4 requires all law enforcement agencies that apply for a no-knock search warrant to
report the following data to the Minnesota Department of Public Safety (DPS) within three months.
(1) The number of no-knock search warrants requested;

(2) The number of no-knock search warrants the court issued;

(3) The number of no-knock search warrants executed;

(4) The number of injuries and fatalities suffered, if any, by peace officers and civilians in execution of no-knock
search warrants; and

(5) Any other information the commissioner requests.

This report fulfills the further requirement that DPS compile the data into a report for the Minnesota Legislature.

DPS does not hold data on the status of cases related to warrants (open/closed), nor on whether the warrants are sealed, or
the undercover status of any officer involved with executing the warrants. Information in this report is provided with as much
specificity as possible while assuming the possibility that at least one of these conditions exist.

2022 NO-KNOCK WARRANT ANNUAL REPORT TO THE LEGISLATURE

 BACKGROUND
Minnesota statute 626.14, subdivision 4 went into effect on Sept. 1, 2021.

The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA), a division of DPS, developed and provided a form to law enforcement
agencies in November 2021 that enables law enforcement agencies that apply for no knock search warrants to report the data
required by statute in a uniform manner.

The information provided to and compiled by the BCA in this report covers the reporting period Jan. 1, 2022, through Dec.31, 2022.

Some warrant applications are initially denied but, after the applicant provides additional information, are granted or again
denied. In these circumstances this report contains information on the final submission and judge’s decision.

This report includes both warrants for entry and non-entry execution. Non-entry no-knock warrants do not involve entry
of a premises (i.e. for no-knock warrants involving mobile tracking device installation or K-9 sniffs).

Excluded from this report is one no-knock warrant requested by the U.S. Marshals Service in Hennepin County. The warrant
was issued on Jan. 10, 2022. The BCA does not have information on this warrant including whether or where it was executed,
task force involvement, subject(s) or other individuals involved, and resistance or injury details.

 METHOD OF EXECUTION
All agencies that executed warrants contained in this report applied for and were granted no-knock warrants. However, not
all warrants were ultimately executed. Others were executed, but not as a no-knock. Agencies may choose to not execute a
warrant if the evidence/individual is no longer being sought. Agencies may determine it is no longer necessary to execute the
warrant as a no-knock. This section of the report identifies the number of warrants that were executed by each agency as a
no-knock, a knock and announce, and non-entry into a residence.
