Marisol Valles García is currently living in El Paso, Texas. A play called "So Go the Ghosts of Mexico" by Matthew Paul Olmos, based on her experiences, opened at La MaMa Experimental Theatre Club, Manhattan, in April 2013. Valles Garcia is married and the mother of a baby boy. She reportedly took the job to change her community. "We're all afraid in Mexico now. We can't let fear beat us", she said after being sworn in. The district has 9,148 inhabitants, and a police force of nineteen. Valles Garcia said she intended to hire more women, and focus on community outreach and prevention.
