Sunland Park Man, 62, Booked on Felony Failure to Appear Charge

Allegedly... Carlos Mario Molina, a 62-year-old resident of Sunland Park, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Aug. 21, 2026. Records indicate he was processed under booking number 2600006719 following an arrest at the El Paso Jail. He faces a felony charge of failure to appear, with bond set at $5,000. A failure to appear charge generally stems from a defendant not attending a scheduled court proceeding as required by law. The arrest location at a neighboring jurisdiction's facility suggests a transfer based on an outstanding warrant issued by Doña Ana County authorities. This type of felony classification indicates the underlying legal matter was significant in nature. The charges are allegations, and Molina is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
