Las Cruces Woman, 62, Booked on Felony Failure to Appear Charge

Allegedly... Sharon Lee Colburn, a 62-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on July 10, 2026. Records indicate she was processed under booking number 2600005477 on a felony charge of failure to appear. Colburn was transferred from the Pima County Detention Center and is currently held on a $20,000 bond. A felony failure to appear charge typically stems from a defendant missing a mandatory court proceeding related to an underlying felony case. The arrest location at an out-of-state facility in Pima County suggests the booking followed an extradition or transfer process to address the outstanding New Mexico warrant. This charge focuses on the breach of a court order rather than the merits of any prior allegations. The charges are allegations, and Sharon Lee Colburn is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
