. . . there is noting worse than taking someone into custody, booking them in and then having to release them.

Yes, there is. 

It seems to me that actually being the person who is falsely arrested would be much worse. 

About ten per cent of all arrests made by the U.S. border cops are false . . . they have a rewards system of gift cards and extra time off for officers who make more arrests so from the perspective of that particular police agency more is better.

You'd be right.  In most cases, all you need is the ACCUSATION, and your life is pretty much fucked from then on.  Even if you're proven innocent, most won't even give a damn.

Depends on the career, really. Having arrests show up on criminal record checks is a very bad idea anyway, but a lot of employers don't care or just don't bother checking.
