Allegedly... Jena-lynn Tulpe Johannes, a 22-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Oct. 3, 2026. She faces misdemeanor charges including driving under the influence of liquor or drugs, speeding, and running a red signal light. The arrest occurred at the intersection of University Avenue and Triviz Drive, and she was processed under booking number 2600007966 with no bond currently listed. A charge of driving while intoxicated in New Mexico typically involves an allegation that a person operated a motor vehicle while their ability to do so was impaired by alcohol or other substances.

The charges are allegations, and Johannes is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
