New Mexico youth ranch faces third lawsuit in Santa Fe
Grandparents of a former Tierra Blanca Ranch High Country Youth Program participant filed a state court complaint seeking damages for alleged physical and emotional abuse and unpaid labor. The suit also targets the Children, Youth and Families Department for not acting. The ranch earlier settled a separate suit with a one-year access agreement and agreed to improve supervision and remove restraints. State police investigations remain, with a prior Amber Alert and a later discovery of missing teens found safe with parents.

Fouratt’s Path From Tennis to Law Enforcement to DPS Secretary
Fouratt grew up with a one-sport rule focused on academics. He shifted from tennis to running and then to golf, influenced by family in military and law enforcement. He pursued law at Texas Tech on a full scholarship, served in the Air Force reserves, and became a federal prosecutor before moving to the New Mexico Department of Public Safety as secretary, planning to expand resources via grants while overseeing the State Police, Motor Transport, Lab, and Special Investigation divisions.
