No one else wanted the job, so a 20-year-old criminology student is the new police chief of a Mexican border town in the bloody crosshairs of the drug cartels.
"Here everyone is frightened," she told Mexican news media. "We are going to exchange this fear for security."
She said she's expanding her force, which will be mostly female and unarmed.

She and the other officers won't carry guns and they'll focus more on crime prevention. The new police chief will have a total of 13 officers working for her. The vast majority of the new hires are also women. The new mayor planned it that way because believes the women can help build a sense of trust
(I trust the mayor got paid well from someone besides the city for which he ostensibly works. )
I "get it now"
1) Guns are illegal in Mexico
2) The police and cartels still have guns
3) reduce the number of guns to have less crime
4) disarm the police
Yeah, that should work, like it did in London England ... viewtopic.php?f=83&t=38922&p=465261&hil ... ap#p465261" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
