20 Year Old Mother Takes on Mexican Cartels - Breaking the Battle of Silence

This young mother is taking on the cartels.  Her focus of effort?  Increase community policing.

Criminal Justice student, Marisol Valles Garcia, took an oath to become the police chief of one of Mexico's most dangerous border towns.  The last police chief was beheaded.

Will her actions make a difference?  Marisol is doing a very dangerous job in a male dominant country.  Despite this, people like her often serve as the catalysts in counterinsurgency environments.  This is where the tide of lawlessness can turn if other people come out of the shadows to back her.

Watch the video.
