| This is surprising to me. Given that it was so easy to get the police chief job you'd think the cartels would try to get one of their own people in there. Then again, maybe the girl is already on the take... |

Everyone was scared less to take on that position.
One of few things I follow, is the war on drugs and all the chaos that happens down there at the border and through out Mexico.
She was the only one that had the balls enough to stand up and take the position, since the last guy got assassinated in June.
That whole city, like many others in that area, stay inside most of the day. Locked up inside because they are so afraid to go out because of all the random gunfire and because the cartels pretty much run the place. In places like that, the small street police pretty much steer clear of the cartels because they want to live to see another day.
Even in Rosarito a decent size city the cops are afraid. About a year and a half ago when my buddy was down there visiting some family he witnessed it first hand. Ratatatatat like multiple AK's rang for something near a minute like 6-7am in the morning. They all got up and started peaking, seconds later burnouts from multiple cars taking off were heard. Then of course they went outside, but not towards the scene. They were prolly about half a mile form the place. Minutes passed and no sounds of police. Finally a few came but they were driving maybe 10-20 miles an hr. Like if they were driving slow enough to watch the criminals take off. And this is in a big city, image a smaller one.
The area where this took place was a "good" neighborhood near the beach. I guess the guy was an older man that used to jog up and down the street here and there in the evening and mornings and had a house almost on the beach. Other then that, no one knew anything else about him other then that he had gotten shot up.
It's really sad whats going down there right now... |
