Las Cruces Man, 27, Booked on Battery and Failure to Appear Charges

Allegedly... Patrick Jacob Jasso, a 27-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on Oct. 3, 2026. Jasso was taken into custody at an apartment on Avenida de Mesilla under booking number 2600007963. He faces misdemeanor charges of battery against a household member and failure to appear, and he is currently being held without bond. The charge of battery against a household member involves allegations of unlawful, intentional touching or striking of a family or household member in a rude, insolent, or angry manner. The additional failure to appear charge indicates a prior legal obligation to attend a court proceeding that was reportedly not met. The arrest location on Avenida de Mesilla falls within the jurisdiction of local municipal and county law enforcement. The charges are allegations, and Jasso is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
