Federal Transfer Brings Mexican National, 33, to New Mexico Jail on Felony Count

Allegedly... Omar Loma-Santillan, 33, was booked into custody in New Mexico on Feb. 2, 2026, under booking number 2600000829. His address is recorded only as Mexico, with no city listed on the intake sheet. The booking lists a single felony charge categorized as All Other Offenses, with no bond amount set and the arrest location recorded as FED TRANSFER. That designation generally indicates a handoff from a federal agency, such as the U.S. Marshals Service, ICE, or the Border Patrol, rather than a new state-court case. A review of the U.S. Attorney for the District of New Mexico's public announcements and New Mexico news coverage did not turn up a filing that identifies Loma-Santillan by name as of this writing. Federal charging papers are sometimes sealed or handled without a press release. The charge is an allegation. Loma-Santillan is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
