Las Cruces Man, 40, Booked on Misdemeanor Failure to Appear Charge

Allegedly... Dendre Sellers, 40, of Las Cruces, was booked into jail on April 13, 2026, on a misdemeanor failure to appear charge, according to jail booking records. The arrest was listed in the area of Hickory Drive and Avenida, with bond set at $100. A failure to appear charge is generally filed when a defendant does not show up for a scheduled court proceeding tied to an underlying case. Relatively low bond amounts often reflect that the underlying matter is a minor offense. The booking record does not specify the underlying case, and a review of New Mexico court dockets and regional news coverage did not surface additional verified details linking Sellers to a specific prior matter at the time of publication. Sellers has not been convicted of the allegation, and he is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law. The case is expected to move forward in Doña Ana County Magistrate Court.
