Male, 31
Spent a bit over four years (2006-2010) serving as a Border Patrol Agent in Tucson Sector, AZ: the busiest sector in the country. Worked numerous positions, and spent the last year and a half operating/instructing ground radar installations. Duties included: field patrols, transport, processing, control room duties, transportation check, checkpoint operations, static watch duties, etc.
Our dope (marijuana and otherwise) was picked up and disposed of by the DEA.

If they discover you have been apprehended crossing the border illegally it will negatively impact your VISA application, particularly if you were deported (in which case you are unable to apply for 5 years, then 10 years, and then ever).

I'm not sure where you'd find this kind of information compiled. It may be available directly through a CBP office. The term you'd be using is "OTM" (Other than Mexican). Each sector in the BP has a headquarters with various agents assigned to public relations etc. That would be the place to start.

Contact their consulate to directly contact the US and look into her status. If it was June, she's either in jail, or has already been flown back to Honduras. It is also likely she lied and said she was a Mexican in order to avoid being flown back.

It's about 95% politics. No party nor politician wants to be responsible for losing the Latin-American vote or ruffling the feathers of Mexico's government. It would actually save us a lot of money in the long-run, given how much we spend on border security.
Share Answer: 
It would make a transition to ICE much easier, but the FBI is never easy to get into. They recruit very specific people from very specific fields. It can't hurt your chances, but I would not join the BP planning on simply switching over to the FBI. The FBI posts what they're looking for on their website. You'd be better off getting a degree that they're interested in.
