Las Cruces Man, 55, Booked on Household Member Battery Charge

Allegedly... Jimmy Esquivel Maestas, 55, of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Aug. 23, 2026. He faces a misdemeanor charge of battery against a household member following an arrest at 729 Augustine Ave. Records from the facility indicate he was held without bond under booking number 2600006766. A charge of battery against a household member in New Mexico typically involves the alleged use of force or violence against a spouse, family member, or person with whom the accused has a domestic relationship. The arrest location on Augustine Avenue falls within the jurisdiction of local Las Cruces law enforcement. A no-bond hold indicates that a judge has not yet set a financial requirement for release or that the individual is being held pending a first appearance. The charges are allegations, and Maestas is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
