Deming Man, 52, Booked Into Dona Ana County Jail on Felony Charge, Held Without Bond

Allegedly... Alejandro Ramos-Lopez, 52, of Deming, was booked into the Dona Ana County Detention Center on May 1, 2025, after an arrest in Deming, according to jail records. Booking paperwork lists a single felony count under the broad "all other offenses" category, with no bond set at the time of intake. Deming sits in Luna County, and arrests made inside the city are typically handled by Deming Police or the Luna County Sheriff’s Office before defendants are transported to a regional detention facility. A review of Deming-area outlets, including the Deming Headlight, as well as federal press releases and New Mexico court databases, did not surface news coverage clearly tied to Ramos-Lopez by name, age and city. The "no bond" marking on a booking sheet generally reflects that a judge had not yet set conditions of release, rather than a formal denial of bond. The charge listed at booking is an allegation. Ramos-Lopez is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
