Sing when listening to Lady Gaga, has a voice that keeps you from screaming and talking about drip.
This morning I wanted to make fun of Valle de Juarez cold with gray sweatshirt and legend love, jeans and black suede boots that cover just above the heel.
walks toward his office with that obsession to look far to floor. Passes in front shot scraped the walls with white cement and plaster of police headquarters.
grabbed me without makeup! "He says, and opens the door with a trio of bullet holes that could fit a thumb and carpeted offices with faces of men in hats or nectarines that are sought by prosecutors in Chihuahua with the caption: 'Help us find them. "
Marisol Valles, 21, is the Police Chief G. Praxedis Guerrero located about 90 kilometers from Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua, which is reached by a road along the U.S. border. Just follow the path of the Rio Grande the Americans tube.
"Look, see there," he said pointing to where the lights of his old Ford lit the night before heading to Praxedis, a photojournalist who agreed to guide me, here is ant traffic in arms and drugs.
The road to this city, runs into a military checkpoint where a group of soldiers ask what you do and where to go. On one side
wearing balaclavas, another military gets into a barricade of sandbags to shoot if someone does not stop. At night they are invisible.
- Here we learned that the military were interested in two things at the checkpoints, you turn your interior light and put your hands on the wheel, I noticed Ernesto Rodriguez, who sniffs the red ink for 25 years and all that involves threats, adrenaline, frames per second, closing time and family at risk.
This route to the community of Marisol, also known news: "In Chihuahua a woman and four men were lined up and shot yesterday morning with a gap of Placitas village in the Juarez Valley, between the towns of Guadalupe Distrito Bravos and Praxedis G. Guerrero. Implementation will be fired over 100 bullets ... "
One might think that Marisol, who accepted this job because the mayor was invited, was trained to speak with reporters, but she says it was us who silence vaccine many of his sentences.
- have been so many and the early days not even let me work ... he recalls.
Days after taking office on October 20, 2010, a news website said local Marisol: Chief of Police does not kill a fly. Another headline: Marisol Valles, the brave
Mexico ... then the news was global and the town of Praxedis already appeared on Google and front pages to the history of criminology as a student in charge of local police.
- How many women are your team?
- 13 and 2 men
- Why more women than men?
- Why is the project of the mayor. And because women are more sensitive, more humble, more compressive and give people more confidence and do not go armed. The woman makes more sense to listen with empathy and for that reason most women.
- How to live motherhood and work?
- It's a bit difficult because as a mom keeps me running can not be with my son for 8 months as long as you want. But I have the support of my parents and my sisters. My mom and sister care for him.
- How to live your husband this stage?
- I have so much support because he says I'm doing something I like. He accepts it very well.
- do you do it?
- My husband works in a garage.
- why some reporters are looking to put Marisol against the narcos?
- I always say, do not want to put something that is not going to say. The point is that they do not understand what we do. It was hard because I wanted it put in the mouth.
And he says something you already have tried: When asked about the bad, I say that is not my role. We will not fight them. Marisol
never tells the narcos narcos. He prefers to tell the bad guys. Neither wants to talk about things that others can see.
A woman who does not mind me first and last name in the Acapulco restaurant on Main Street - again I heard the children screaming and shouting. I thought that was chasing a crazy then walk here in the square. But when I got to peek were several trucks around the town hall. Balaclavas and fell several people shouted that out to hell. We we went and then began firing as usual. They were half an hour.
Another woman snuggles up to the discussion: Have you known who abducted the boy from the pharmacy?
- Yes, "she says as she nods as if he cared to be heard, the assassins have killed many people and kidnap.
- Oops yes, once cut the head off a policeman and left in a cooler, but nobody noticed because there were flea markets.
The stories and what happens in Praxedis not prevent Marisol insist: We choose hope over fear. We will not mess with anybody, just going to implement the values \u200b\u200band principles and we must drive them to ride.
- Who will face the narcos?
- That's what the Federal Police, it is not my role be telling, but it is clear who is responsible for the prosecution, investigation and prevention.
- President Calderón has said that governments must take the risk to fight drug traffickers ...
- How can we fight something that is beyond our reach. A municipality and Praxedis bigger ... if you could not why would a small town has to achieve it? That is why we are backing a project to encourage the values.
- What do you think of this 'war' against drugs?
- If others think that violence fought with violence is very of them. We focus on values. This is not war. We are Mexican. All are equal before the law Why make war when we can talk.
- Marisol Where do you see in the coming years?
- I do not think in the future. But now. I want an epidemic of values. We started in Praxedis because it is a small place. Because it's our town. Start here. If people here believe in our values, perhaps working in Mexico. I dream that Praxedis again be a happy people. My dream is that my son can grow here and that things will change. Do not be afraid to leave.
- Does it hurt or just Praxedis Mexico?
- It pains me everything that happens. But I'm not someone who can do something big for all of Mexico. But if I had the opportunity to do something for my town where I grew up, then I do. Maybe there are more people who believe in hope, that would advance much more and would have covered all of Mexico.
- How do you manage the risk of your job?
- I am here as manager. I'm not picking on anyone. Hope you do not get me wrong what I'm doing.
- What did not take it the wrong who?
- Bad people. We're not picking on anyone but to society they believe in his ideals and hopes to change that fear. Why not sit at the table ill to live with us?
- What would you say to President Calderon?
- To believe in what we are doing and Praxedis is in everyone and that everyone is a Mexico.
In Praxedis main square, a group of elderly clean your table leaf that the wind has dropped this morning. Marisol
walks with his jeans, his love sweatshirt and black suede boots. Passes to the side of a squad car, old tires defense and who is assigned as chief of police.
Then I remember that before there was another charge Marisol that office.
A story told on 19 January 2009 that his head was found in the cooler than Acapulco kitchen lady told me. The note said: The chief of police of the municipality of Praxedis G. Guerrero, Chihuahua, was beheaded and his head abandoned in front of the local police headquarters ...
