Mesquite Man, 44, Faces Felony Burglary and Domestic Battery Charges

Allegedly... Ivan Santillan, 44, of Mesquite, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on June 12, 2026. He is being held under booking number 2600004806 on several felony and misdemeanor charges, including aggravated residential burglary, false imprisonment, and aggravated battery against a household member causing great bodily harm. Additional charges include aggravated stalking, battery against a household member, and violation of a domestic violence order. Records indicate he was arrested at 7502 Red Hawk and is currently held without bond. The charges against Santillan involve a combination of domestic relations and property offenses. In New Mexico, a no-bond hold is often applied in cases involving alleged domestic violence or high-severity felonies until a judge can conduct a pretrial detention hearing. The classification of aggravated residential burglary typically indicates an allegation that an unauthorized entry into a dwelling occurred while the individual was armed or committed a battery during the incident. The charges are allegations, and Santillan is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
