Albuquerque Man, 44, Held Without Bond After Cibola County Felony Arrest

Allegedly... Manuel Joseph Boydston, 44, of Albuquerque, was booked into custody on Feb. 19, 2026, after an arrest in Cibola County, according to jail records. Intake data lists a single felony under the generic "All Other Offenses" category, with no bond set at the time of booking. Cibola County sits along the Interstate 40 corridor west of Albuquerque, and the county jail in Grants frequently books individuals picked up on warrants or during traffic-related stops along the interstate. No corresponding case filings, court records or news accounts identifying Boydston were located in publicly available New Mexico sources at the time of publication. A booking does not establish guilt. Boydston is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law.
