Deming Man, 29, Booked at Doña Ana County Detention Center on Federal Transfer

Allegedly... Govanni Chavez, a 29-year-old resident of Deming, New Mexico, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Aug. 10, 2026. Records indicate he was processed under booking number 2600006371 on a felony charge classified as all other offenses. He is currently being held without bond following an arrest involving a federal transfer. This type of booking typically occurs when an individual is being moved between jurisdictions or is being held on behalf of federal authorities within a local facility. The specific nature of the underlying federal matter is not detailed in the county’s initial intake record, though the classification denotes a felony-level proceeding. The arrest location is listed as a federal transfer point rather than a local street address. The charges are allegations, and Chavez is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
