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.

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.

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 ??

Im a bail agent and also do recovery for my company.

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.

Pretty much. TN is kind of the Wild West with this stuff.

There is of course state law that applies to them, but as with most things it isn't exactly a huge LE priority.

Second, as a private citizen, you don't have to observe constitutional rights, do you?  With a shout of, "Maga!" you can kick in the door and grab your man.  Right?

When you get bonded you agree to surrender a lot of your rights, consider it as being similar to being on parole.

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.

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.

I remember that morning. I was going to work in Riverside and was puzzled why San Bernardino County Sheriffs deputies were in downtown Riverside. They had rifles at the ready and looked terrified. I've never seen men that looked so scared. Like they were being hunted, which they were. I later learned Dorner was holed up near my home in Big Bear.

I had my truck with a shell searched with another cop pointing a rifle at me. The faggot had his finger on the trigger and my idiot brother told him, "Can't corner the Dorner!"

It sure is different if you cosigned the contract or are harboring a fugitive...that's a crime incase you didn't know.

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.

Hopefully you never have to bail out a friend or family member.  But if you do, hopefully, he or she will not miss court.  And, hopefully, if he or she does miss court, the bail agents and their teams don't find your connection to the fugitive and come looking for them at your house.  But when they do find that connection (and they will) and when they come to your house, hopefully, you will have dummied up and changed that ignorant attitude about fugitive recovery agents.  Because, if you haven't, someone's probably gonna die.  Hopefully, it won't be you.  I mean that, friend.

We get to defend ourselves from threats of grave bodily injury or death just like everyone else does.  We can be charged with negligence and worse just like everyone else can.  I won't come in your house looking for the bail jumper until after I ask you if I may and you have consented.  Otherwise...I'm out of there.  I'll catch 'em another day.  No need to be getting all roostered up, here.  Take a breath.  Relax.  Your best chance of NOT having a bunch of jackwagons like pictured above, come to your door and busting in, is to find a professional bondsman first...if you ever need one.  Thus endeth the lesson.
