Mexico City: A 20-year-old criminology student, the only candidate for the position, was designated as police chief in the violence-plagued town of Guadalupe Distrito Bravo, Mexican media reported Tuesday.

Marisol Valles Garcia took charge on Monday of security in the town, population 10,000, on the US border. The community is around 80 km east of Ciudad Juarez, itself regarded as the most violent city in Mexico.

The former mayor of Guadalupe Distrito Bravos, Jesus Manuel Lara Rodriguez, was killed on June 19 at his home in Ciudad Juarez, after receiving death threats.

Valles Garcia said she will not have to fight the drug gangs, which is the responsibility of other law enforcement agencies. Instead, she will pursue preventive programmes in neighbourhoods and schools, and she will be in charge of reclaiming public spaces for the community.

What could go wrong?

Before you reply to this, the last two threads were pulled as duplicates, a fate that probably awaits this one as well.

Is she hot ?

I did a search & there was nothing on this. And, if I had a little sister.......she’d be JUST like you.

She won't go up against eh drug lords - and she probably has already meet with them to say so - so basically - she's worthless as far as trying to curb the violence. Neighborhood programs don't work in neighborhoods that don't want the help - and rather bring in the drug money...she's won't accomplish much -

maybe this can be a new spot for the US Media to take vacations?

An interesting job description for a police chief, preventative programs and public space reclamation. Apparently not much law enforcement though.

Doesn't matter she'll be dead soon...

The other thread was from Yahoo.

Anyways,

This girl might be one of those idealistic college kids who think they know everything.

If so, she is in for a rude awakening.

Man that's really strange.

There was a thread with pictures and it was blocked and then disappeared because it was “a duplicate”. Then another thread started to which several people (including me) posted to. It was also pulled as “a duplicate”. Now I can't find any of them either.

Oh well, never mind.

Suicide by mayor.

Valles Garcia said she will not have to fight the drug gangs,

Yea if she doesn't fight them maybe they will just leave the town alone

which is the responsibility of other law enforcement agencies.

You mean like the police?

Instead, she will pursue preventive programmes in neighbourhoods and schools,

Do there preventative programs include shooting the drug gangs in the head on sight? If not it will fail.

and she will be in charge of reclaiming public spaces for the community.

And what's she gonna do when the gangs don't give up their turf?

Sweet looking kid he is on my dead pool list

Actually I found two of them. One of the pulled ones and the one with pictures. Takes a strange search.

After her first day on the job, she will be eminently more qualified to run for president of Mexico than Obama was when he ran for president of the U.S.
