El Paso Woman, 21, Booked on Felony Charge After I-25 Checkpoint Stop

Allegedly... Jacqueline Grajeda, 21, of El Paso, Texas, was booked into a New Mexico jail on Nov. 17, 2025, under booking number 2500009332, according to local jail records. She is listed with one felony count described in the log as "All Other Offenses," and the arrest location is recorded as the I-25 checkpoint. Bond is marked not applicable, typically reflecting a federal hold or a pending initial appearance. The I-25 Border Patrol checkpoint near Las Cruces is one of the busiest interior immigration checkpoints in the country, and cases originating there frequently move to federal court when agents suspect smuggling of people or narcotics. The jail record does not disclose the underlying conduct, and no public indictment, complaint, or news account naming Grajeda had been located at the time of publication. The charge is an allegation. Grajeda is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
