Las Cruces Man, 30, Booked on Battery and Resisting Charges

Allegedly... Johnathon Frary Denton, a 30-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on June 20, 2026. Records indicate he was taken into custody at 132 Willoughby Ave under booking number 2600005015. Denton faces misdemeanor charges including battery against a household member and resisting or obstructing an officer. The booking record shows that Denton is currently being held without bond. The arrest location on Willoughby Avenue is within the municipal limits of Las Cruces, where local law enforcement processed the intake. In New Mexico, a no-bond hold at the time of booking often signifies that the individual must remain in custody until they make an initial appearance before a magistrate or judge. The charges are allegations, and Denton is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
