The case has reignited the debate over whether lawmakers should make it harder for people accused of violent crimes to make bail
A political newcomer who lost his bid for the New Mexico statehouse and is accused of orchestrating a series of drive-by shootings at the homes of Democratic officials will remain in custody pending trial after a judge agreed Monday that he is a danger to the community., 39, is charged with multiple counts that include shooting at a dwelling and possession of a firearm by a felon.
Prosecutors outlined Pena’s time in prison and described him as the “ringleader” of a group that he assembled to shoot at people’s homes, saying ballistics testing determined that a firearm found in the trunk of a car registered to Pena was linked to at least one shooting. Another man was found driving that car and arrested on an unrelated warrant.
Police also are investigating donations made to Pena’s campaign, including a contribution by one of the men accused of conspiring with him and the man’s mother. Detectives said they learned through witness interviews that Pena allegedly arranged with an unknown source to have that source funnel donations to his campaign in the names of other people.
