Civil suit challenges Rio Rancho city and DPS officials
The federal civil rights case in Albuquerque targets the city of Rio Rancho and DPS figures Detective Don Donges and Director Dencil Haycox for 250000 dollars. Plaintiff Robert Stewart alleges wrongful arrest in January 1986 over alleged larceny of two sleeping bags. The charges were dropped due to insufficient evidence. Stewart’s attorney calls several DPS officers to testify about alleged ethical and legal violations, with Haycox also expected to testify. The city is represented by Jer ry Walz of Albuquerque. Rio Rancho Mayor Grover Nash says department impropriety claims will not be investigated until the trial outcome is known.
