Jose Castro-Castro, 26, Booked in Doña Ana County on Federal Transfer Hold

Allegedly... Jose Castro-Castro, 26, with an address listed as Ecuador, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Jan. 30, 2026, under booking number 2600000748. Jail records show a single felony entry categorized as 'all other offenses,' with no bond amount and the arrest location recorded as 'federal transfer.' That designation typically indicates an individual is being held at a county facility on behalf of a federal agency such as the U.S. Marshals Service or U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Searches of the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of New Mexico press releases and open federal court dockets did not return matching criminal case information at the time of publication. All charges described here are allegations; the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
