Wonder what the difference would be if they were actually LEO as far as charges. Would fireing into the car even be legal if there was a guy fleeing in the ride? View Quote Police are very restricted on when they can use lethal force against a fleeing criminal. I have been surprised at some of the scenarios here where police post that they would fire. Basically the police officer will have to later establish the suspect presented significant threat of danger of death or serious injury to others https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tennessee_v._Garner |

This man gets it. There are thousands of successful fugitive recoveries done by quiet, professional teams of hunters every year. Those are the ones we don't hear about in the news. If the jackwagons in this story came to my office looking for work, I'd run 'em off. Wouldn't hire any one of them. Have said the same thing about the dog & crew for years, as well. Don't need or want the extra attention and liability these types bring to the table. Guess that's why in 20 years of writing bail I've done all my own recovery work when needed...except for one case that I hired a team for assistance with. View Quote |

If the person is believed to be a violent criminal who is possibly going to do more harm, then the police can shoot them in the back or wherever. At least that is what I read here when the police shot an escaped convict in NY a few years back. View Quote |

It is indeed very much retarded. Sometimes you have to cut the BS and move with the times. Maybe having bounthy hunters made sense 200 years ago, but nope, not any more. No bail? No bail bondsman? Immediate forfeiture of bail? Does the state have people actually go after those who don't show up, and forfeit the bond? Looks like Louisville, Lexington, Owensboro and Frankfort have different rules ?? |

Never met a bounty hunter that wasn't a criminal View Quote We dont do a lot but a few times a year. Im former LE background and I only work with former LE. I maintain my LE cert in my state. There are "bounty hunters" that are felons. In my state all you need is a 24 HR class. You are also supposed to maintain LE cert which hardly anyone has. I refuse to work anyone whim I feel is a liability. I maitain a good working relanshenship with LE and that makes all the difference. 90% of the time they come out with us. |

A quick Google shows me the state runs the program. What's the point of setting $100,000 bail if the state will carry the bond? Does the state have people actually go after those who don't show up, and forfeit the bond? Looks like Louisville, Lexington, Owensboro and Frankfort have different rules ?? View Quote |

So they can run around playing cop without being answerable to nobody, most of the time?
Theres something really wrong with this. |

Wonder if they will be locked in the same cell with any of their previous "trophies"?

What about when one of these errr people show up at a private residence. That they think their guy might be in or say he is in. Do they have a right without a warrant to go into anybody's home to look for their guy or to retrieve him.
Even LE has to get a warrant before going into a dwelling don't they I've heard and I know it's second hand info. Of these thugs busting into peoples private homes because they thought the guy they were looking for was inside. Not the home of the fugitive but of a lead they got as to where their fugitive might be at. How can they do that. Then threatening private citizens that don't even know the fugitive. Trying to strong arm their way into their homes. How can they get away with this. |

Holy cow!!!!!!!
They did that to someone they thought was just jumping bail and running from them. Danmmmmmm What was he out on bail for again. Not that what I see above is any excuse to do what they did. I'm just curious as to what they thought gave them reason enough to shoot and basically try to kill s bail jumper that was just trying to just get away. After seeing that picture above I can't believe that just one person was killed. |

When you get bonded you agree to surrender a lot of your rights, consider it as being similar to being on parole. View Quote Also when FTA is involved we act as officersof Of the court serving a legal warrant. I do believe in my state you are supposed to have a LE 40HR course as well. Only time anyone will check is if Shit goes down. I have never been asked to show certs. Im posting to from my Shit cell so ill try to post more later |

Hopefully they don't. Hopefully they get blown the fuck away by an armed homeowner. As far as I'm concerned, that's no different than any other home invasion. View Quote I personally would not enter a house unless I know for a fact that person we are after is in side and it was for a felony warrant not just a surrender. Most folks let us in they would rather have us in there home instead of LE. If LE enters then anything illegal they see is good for a arrest. Where as we only want who we are after. I am strait up with folks and nice until its time not to be nice, I do not act like a cop nor a thug. The class I took was filled with felons and folks that think its cool to be a "bounty hunter" but have no idea what they are trying to get in to. I would never work recovery with out a weapon. So either they are not carrying or doing so illegally. Ultimately the bond company is liable for who they hire and some hire felonsNow days bounty hunters are a dime a dozen. |

A whole lot of serious sounding charges and only $300K for bail?
