Man, 42, Booked in Doña Ana County Via Federal Transfer on Felony Charge

Allegedly... James Ebert, 42, listed at a Las Cruces-area address in the 88310 ZIP code, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Jan. 22, 2026, following a federal transfer, according to jail records. The charge is logged as an unspecified felony, and no bond was set. A review of federal court records and U.S. Attorney's Office announcements for the District of New Mexico did not produce a confirmed match to this booking as of this writing. The booking entry does not identify the originating federal case or the agency that initiated the transfer. The charges are allegations; Ebert is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
