Las Cruces Man, 48, Booked on Multiple Counts of Failure to Appear

Allegedly... Benjamin V Reicks, a 48-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Sept. 11, 2026. Records indicate he was taken into custody at 217 E Picacho on five separate misdemeanor counts of failure to appear. He is currently being held under booking number 2600007310 with no bond listed for the individual charges. A failure to appear charge is typically issued by a court when a defendant does not attend a scheduled hearing or fails to comply with a previous judicial order. The arrest location at 217 E Picacho corresponds with the Magistrate Court in Las Cruces, suggesting the booking occurred in direct relation to court proceedings or an outstanding warrant served at that facility. The charges are allegations, and Reicks is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
