Get a lawyer immediately. Call the public defender in Santa Fe (505-827-3900) if you can't afford one. Do it NOW.
If it is a federal matter, call the federal PD in Albuquerque immediately

It is not a good idea to go before the Grand Jury. Exercise your right to remain silent - it is a good time for it. Consult a criminal lawyer in your town. You need representation. Initial consultations/case evaluations are usually done at no cost. Ask first.
