Rio Rancho Police release Feb. 15-21 arrest log listing names, charges, locations
Rio Rancho Police Department log headline cites Feb. 15–21 entries, but the supplied record pages contain arrests dated Feb. 8, 10, 12 and 13 — including Julian McKenna at Target and Jorge Fernandez at NM 528 and Sara Road.

The public RRPD arrest log referenced in a Rio Rancho web posting purports to cover Feb. 15–21, 2026, but the material available for review contains entries explicitly dated Feb. 8, Feb. 10, Feb. 12 and Feb. 13. The page header visible in the excerpt reads "RRPD arrest records: Feb. 8-14" and a byline lists Michaela Helean Staff Writer with a "Published" label but no timestamp; the article lead is truncated after "The weekly ar".
Entries labeled "### Feb. 8" list six arrestees with names, ages, cities and charges. Emily Pinzon, 24, of Albuquerque is listed on charges of DWI; leaving the scene of an accident; careless driving; no proof of insurance, with the location printed as "at an unspecified address." James Montoya, 23, of Rio Rancho is listed for assault and battery against a household member at a redacted address. Julian McKenna, 27, of Cedar Crest is listed for shoplifting and larceny at Target. Breana Herrera, 23, of Rio Rancho is listed for battery against a household member at a redacted address. Thomas Gallegos, 80, of Rio Rancho is listed for battery against a household member at a redacted address. Devin Graham, 21, of Rio Rancho is listed for battery at an unspecified address.

Entries labeled "### Feb. 10" include two arrests connected to the 3700 block of 33rd Circle and one near Southern and Unser boulevards. Angelo Dennshinnateano, 36, of Albuquerque is listed for breaking and entering; two counts of a credit card theft; conspiracy to commit fraud at the 3700 block of 33rd Circle. Krysta Ramey, 33, is printed as of "Aluquerque" and is listed for fraud; conspiracy to commit fraud; receiving stolen property at the 3700 block of 33rd Circle. Ernest Saenz, 51, of Rio Rancho is listed for DWI; accidents involving damage to vehicle; concealing identity; assault upon a peace officer; resisting arrest near Southern and Unser boulevards.
The "### Feb. 12" segment lists three entries. Damacio Nogales, 43, of Rio Rancho is listed for deprivation of a household member; criminal damage to the property of a household member at an unspecified address. Rae Dixon, 22, of Vanderwagen is listed for battery against a household member at a redacted address. David Heckman, 56, of Rio Rancho is listed for aggravated stalking at a redacted address.
The "### Feb. 13" segment includes at least three entries. Jason Woody, 38, of Cuba is listed for driving while license revoked; speeding at an unspecified address. Jorge Fernandez, 48, of Rio Rancho is listed for DWI; speeding; driving while license revoked at NM 528 and Sara Road. Alysia Benatar, 36, of Rio Rancho is listed for criminal damage to the property of a household member at an unspecified address. The Feb. 13 excerpt contains an ellipsis indicating additional material was truncated.
The headline and lead referencing a Feb. 15–21 RRPD arrest log are not accompanied by the claimed dates' entries in the supplied pages. I have requested the complete Feb. 15–21 arrest log and the RRPD booking details that would supply case numbers, booking timestamps, bond amounts and court dates, and I have asked the posting source to confirm the printed "Aluquerque" spelling for Krysta Ramey and the byline timestamp for Michaela Helean; this story will be updated when the department or posting source provides those records.
