Mexico border state's female police chief flees

Marisol Valles Garcia, the 20-year-old woman who made headlines when she became the sheriff of Praxedis, Mexico, has left the country for the United States, the attorney general of Chihuahua State told reporters Friday.
Valles Garcia, a criminology student, was the only person who accepted the job of police chief in the city whose police officers had been abducted and killed.
She is reportedly seeking asylum in the United States after receiving death threats, CNN affiliate KVIA said, citing Mexican media reports.
Valles Garcia accepted the job in October. At the time, she said she was tired of everyone being afraid.
She recruited three other women to join the unarmed, 13-member force in the small municipality of 8,500 people, the government-run Notimex news agency reported. She said the force would employ non-violent tactics with the goals of winning back security in public spaces and fostering greater cooperation among neighbors so they can form watch committees.
"The weapons we have are principles and values, which are the best weapons for prevention," she told CNN en EspaƱol. "Our work will be pure prevention. We are not going to be doing anything else other than prevention."

She is wise to leave after being threatened.
They were VERY wise to threaten her and they're VERY lucky she isn't being a hardass on this one. Having that girl get "disappeared" (I highly doubt they'd kill her and leave her body out there like that) would make for some MAJOR bad press and would obligate the Mexican police and military to reprisal which would just make the situation a lot worse.
Best case scenario. Thumbs up for sure.

I was wondering what happened to her. Kinda funny how every former police chief had been murdered and yet she is scared off by a few death threats - didn't she know what she was in for?

Yeah might not be the complete story but, I was wonder how long it would be before she left or disappeared. Luckily she got out in one piece, as I doubt they would have "just" killed her.
Mexico is just a crazy place when it comes to that shit. The boarder towns are fucking scary.

They may have raped her, they may not have. Drug traffickers are like regular people. Not everyone wants to watch some girl get raped, especially when she didn't do anything particularly wrong.
And yet, everyone has guns. Could go either way.

Everyone but the cops apparently.

She didn't report back from maternity leave because she doesn't want to orphan her child. I'm glad she didn't go back. Being a police officer in that town is the same as committing suicide.

i am glad she leaved that job.. she would had been killed in that crazy situation there. it's a warzone,and how can a pretty 20 year old girl do something about that? it was a suicide mission for her,and she may be happy that she is not killed when she worked there.
