El Paso Man, 19, Booked on Felony Child Abuse and Battery Charges

Allegedly... Brian Pena Trevino, a 19-year-old resident of El Paso, Texas, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on April 18, 2026. He faces a range of charges including four felony counts of aggravated battery against a household member causing great bodily harm, child abuse, and false imprisonment. Booking records indicate he was taken into custody at an apartment on Valle Vista and is currently held without bond. According to news reports, the charges stem from a domestic violence incident in Sunland Park, New Mexico. Court and news records show Trevino is accused of repeated strangulation and child abuse during the encounter. The case also involves misdemeanor allegations of interference with communications, assault against a household member, and criminal damage to property. The charges are allegations, and Trevino is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
