I don’t like the “everything is a conspiracy” mindset but this sounds like some corrupt shit was happening in the background of this case.
I don't think it's a conspiracy that Boule might have been playing both ends against the middle. He could have been helping border crossers if they paid him enough. And I'll assume "payment" could also include sex. At the same time - he could have (un)officially been working for the government too and they could have been paying him or helping him as well.
Agencies and agents can be very lazy. For the Border Patrol (etc) it's very useful to be able to bump apprehension numbers in an easy way as opposed to freezing their balls off in the pouring rain week after week (or month after month) actually nabbing border crossers themselves very slowly one or two there and on or two there.
