Victim Information Notification (VINE) is available in Dakota County. VINE is a free, 24 hour telephone service that provides notification on an offender’s release, transfer or other status information. Victims and the public may register at anytime for notification by calling the toll free line 1-877-MN-4-VINE (1-877-664-8463) or
