You are correct, at least from everything I know. I know that here where I live, there have been a few "illegals" who trespassed in people's backyards (that is what happens when your backyard is literally on the border), were rounded up by the homeowner and the homeowner was the one who got in trouble for the false imprisonment.
It has been said that if you see "illegals" you call the police and let them handle it.
