ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. The Bernalillo County district attorney is raising concerns over Albuquerque’s public safety efforts.
D.A. Raul Torrez said he believes people who are charged with serious crimes, and are supposed to be supervised with GPS ankle monitors, are not monitored after hours or on weekends. This came to light after Torrez looked into the case of Devin Munford.
In December 2020, APD accused Munford of driving around Albuquerque and firing a gun out of his car. The D.A. argued that Munford was dangerous and should be held in jail until his trial, but Judge Clara Moran disagreed. Munford was released with an ankle monitor under the court’s pretrial services supervision program.
