New Mexico Judge Abruptly Resigns After Suspected Tren de Aragua Gangbanger Arrested for Firearm Possession at His Home
 
A Doña Ana County magistrate judge has abruptly stepped down after an alleged Tren de Aragua gang affiliate who is in the U.S. illegally was reportedly arrested at his home and charged with possession of a firearm or ammunition.

Judge Jose “Joel” Cano reportedly submitted a letter of resignation on Mar. 3 of this year.

Judge Cano, a former police officer who took the bench in 2011, told a Border Hawk source that he did indeed resign but did not comment further.

Border Hawk contacted the judge’s office on Apr. 1 and was told by a clerk that he had “retired.”

On Feb. 28, 2025, Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) El Paso arrested Cristhian Ortega-Lopez at a Las Cruces residence owned by Judge Cano following an anonymous tip.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Just another reason crime is out of control in America - judges. :judge:

  • The problem with everything is they try and make it better without realizing the old way is fine.

Not a  good look for judge Jose.  Renting to an illegal gang member.
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.
