As a US-level attorney, that isn't that many I would think (I also have the predisposition to think a lot of officers are rather corrupt though).

What's interesting is this quote:

In the region he covers, there has been 14 shooting incidents by border agents in the last nine years, four in which the suspect was killed, Sutton said.

Each time, he said, the agent wasn't prosecuted, because they had reasonable explanations for using deadly force.
