Virgil Jay Potarf was booked into the Buchanan County Jail on 1/29/2026 4:49 PM by the Buchanan County Sheriffs Department for the following charges:

Domestic Assault - 4Th Degree - 1St Or 2Nd Offense (1),(5) - Assault (Free Text)
Dwi-Aggravated-Alcohol


Note: We post all subjects who are taken into the jail. The majority of the time, this is due to a new arrest; however, sometimes subjects are transfered back to this facility from another facility, which would cause them to be re-posted. The charges listed above may be the result of the subject failing to appear for court, not necessarily a new charge. All subjects are presumed innocent until found guilty by the court of law.
