Las Cruces Man, 39, Booked on Felony Failure to Appear Charge

Allegedly... Justin D Ortiz, a 39-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on June 26, 2026. Ortiz was taken into custody at 1150 Hickory Drive in Las Cruces under booking number 2600005170. He faces a felony charge for failure to appear, and records currently indicate that no bond has been set for his release. A felony failure to appear charge typically occurs when an individual does not attend a mandatory court proceeding related to an underlying felony case. The arrest location on Hickory Drive falls within the jurisdiction of local Las Cruces law enforcement. A no-bond hold signifies that the defendant must remain in custody until they can be brought before a judge to address the missed court date. The charges are allegations, and Ortiz is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
