Las Cruces Man, 43, Booked on Felony Failure to Appear Charge

Allegedly... Carlos Jaime Rodriguez, a 43-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was taken into custody on July 14, 2026. He was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center under booking number 2600005562 on a felony charge of failure to appear. Records indicate he was apprehended at 3840 Garnet St. and is currently being held without bond. A failure to appear charge generally implies that an individual did not attend a scheduled court proceeding as required by a previous legal matter. The felony designation indicates that the underlying case or the nature of the missed appearance carries a higher level of severity under New Mexico statutes. This arrest occurred within the jurisdiction of the Las Cruces Police Department or the Doña Ana County Sheriff's Office. The charges are allegations, and Rodriguez is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
