Las Cruces Man, 59, Booked Into Doña Ana County Facility on Failure to Appear Warrants

Allegedly... Felix Cardoza-mejia, 59, of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on June 5, 2026. Records indicate he was taken into custody at 1223 El Paseo and processed under booking number 2600004587. He faces two misdemeanor charges for failure to appear and is currently being held without bond. A failure to appear charge is typically issued when an individual does not attend a scheduled court proceeding or fails to comply with a court order. The no-bond status indicates that he will remain in custody until he can be brought before a judge to address the outstanding warrants. The arrest occurred within the city limits of Las Cruces, where the local police department maintains jurisdiction over municipal and district court orders. The charges are allegations, and Cardoza-mejia is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
