We also speak with Jenn Budd, a former Border Patrol agent who quit in 2001 and is now an immigrant rights activist. Border Patrol has a history of aggressive tactics and little transparency or scrutiny in the remote areas and border towns where they normally operate. His most recent book is Empire of Borders: The Expansion of the U.S. Border Around the World and Border Patrol Nation: Dispatches from the Front Lines of Homeland Security. To fast-forward to 2010 when Anastasio Hernández Rojas was beaten and tased and killed by Border Patrol, CBP and ICE agents, the Border Patrol does not have the legal authority given to them by Congress to investigate their own use-of-force incidents. And he, once again, controls these cover-up teams, which were rolled from Border Patrol into CBP’s Office of Professional Responsibility.
