Today Stromy Torres pleaded guilty to multiple crimes, including child abuse. From January through May 2022, her 2-year-old little boy was severely abused then hospitalized with multiple fractures in different stages of healing. Torres left the toddler with her boyfriend, Steven Gallegos, who had been previously convicted of child abuse resulting in death in a separate case. While out of custody, Torres was pulled over for a DWI and was found in possession of drugs in May 2022. Then, this July, she was caught selling fentanyl in an undercover drug bust. Torres faces 15 years in the Department of Corrections. Sentencing will take place at a later date. Gallegos has already been sentenced for his part in the abuse of the child. #stopchildabuse#nomoreabuse... See MoreSee Less
Special Agents with the Bernalillo County District Attorney's Office apprehended Saul Guzman. Guzman was wanted on a felony warrant for the charge of Aggravated Battery with Great Bodily Harm. BACKGROUND: The charge stemmed from an incident in May 2023. According to the court documents, the male victim in this case was hanging out with a female he was romantically involved with.

The 15-year-old charged with firing a gunshot at Coronado Shopping Center on Black Friday will remain in custody as his case makes its way through the judicial process. A single gunshot was heard at the mall and sent shoppers and employees into a panic. The teen is due back in court December 15 for another hearing. ... See MoreSee Less
How can we get updates of this case since he is a minor?..
That was a senseless incident with no regard to public safety. Also very costly to the businesses of Coronado Center. I commend the BCSO Lt for his foot pursuit of offender with complete disregard for his own safety. Very brave of you Sir! Also my commendations to our District Attorney and team for fighting to keep him incarcerated through out judicial process. Never have I seen such aggressiveness, by the DAs office, to protect the good people of ABQ and Bernalillo Cty. Way to go Sam!
Thank goodness

Teen violence is such a concern, the DA has launched a tour of school campuses where he talks frankly with children about the realities of gun violence.
Today, Bernalillo County District Attorney Sam Bregman met with students at La Cueva High School to talk about gun violence. It is part of Albuquerque Public School's Gun Violence Prevention Program and DA Bregman's continued efforts to educate and support students and to make sure they're aware of the consequences of bringing guns onto school property and other locations.
DA Bregman has talked with students at multiple schools throughout Bernalillo County and plans to visit more schools in the coming days.
