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.
Ortega-Lopez was reportedly caught by U.S. Border Patrol on Dec. 15, 2023, at Eagle Pass, TX, after illegally entering the U.S. by scaling a barbed wire fence, but was released three days later due to overcrowding at holding facilities.

“Court documents state that he met Nancy Cano [Judge Cano’s wife] doing construction and handyman jobs, and accepted her offer to stay in a casita behind her home. In April 2024, Ortega-Lopez filed a request for immigration relief, listing the Las Cruces address as his residence.”

An account purportedly belonging to the Venezuelan also features photos and videos that appear to show him socializing with Judge Cano, including POV footage that apparently shows Ortega-Lopez passing a long rifle to both Judge Cano and Nancy Cano.

Ortega-Lopez has been charged with being an illegal alien in possession of a firearm or ammunition and is being held without bond at Doña Ana County Detention Center.

Many have been bought off by illegal alien criminals-....judges, city officials, cops, doctors, governors, senators, etc. Van Hollen? How many bucks have they made to not impede the illegal invasion and to facilitate entry?
