Jun 08, 2022
Richard Trejo, Jr., or just “Rick” to his colleagues, has worked for the El Paso 911 Dispatch Center for about 17 years now.
Trejo used to be an officer with the El Paso Police Department, but his life was forever changed when he was paralyzed in an ATV accident in November of 2003.
“I like this version of myself. I wish it didn’t take this for me to learn. But, you know, it is what it is,” said Trejo.
