Las Cruces Man, 31, Booked on Four Counts of Failure to Appear

Allegedly... Julian Morales, a 31-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Aug. 12, 2026. Records show he was taken into custody near the intersection of University and College Drive under booking number 2600006422. Morales is currently held without bond on four separate misdemeanor charges. A failure to appear charge is typically issued when an individual does not attend a scheduled court proceeding or fails to comply with a judicial mandate. The arrest location near the university district falls within the jurisdiction of local law enforcement who processed the multiple outstanding warrants. The no-bond status indicates he will remain in custody until he can be brought before a judge. The charges are allegations, and Morales is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
