BOUNTY HUNTER - by Bob Burton.
|
||
"No body, no booty" is the motto of the modern bountyman. Like his Wild
|
||
West counterpart, he tracks the bail fugitive, arrests him in the name of
|
||
justice and surrenders him to the police - all for the love of money.
|
||
|
||
Learn how to talk your way into a bondsman's confidence, acquire the
|
||
necessary tools, track and subdue the fugitive, and a whole lot more. And,
|
||
compiled for the first time, here is a state-by-state list of the laws of
|
||
bounty hunting. With an estimated six million bail jumpers walking the
|
||
streets, bounty hunting can be a gold mine for the smart and the daring.

|
||
Note: CrimeFighters are bounty hunters too, but the name "bounty hunters"
|
||
has been adopted by bail bound recovery agents for many years. The name of
|
||
Bounty Hunters is widely used and recognized by law enforcement agencies as
|
||
being related mainly with bail bond activity. Even though CrimeFighters are
|
||
more like the original bounty hunters (in the Wild West tradition, like
|
||
Clint Eastwood in "Hang 'em High"), we'll use our own unique name to create
|
||
our own identity with law enforcement people. While you can be both a
|
||
CrimeFighter and a bounty hunter, the name "CrimeFighters" indicates the
|
||
difference of our unique role, and much broader activity in law enforcement.

BAIL ENFORCER - The Advanced Bounty Hunter, by Bob Burton.

||
No prey is as wily and dangerous as a hunted man. It takes a special breed,
|
||
equally cunning and determined, to track the fugitive down, capture him and
|
||
bring him to justice. It takes professional bounty hunter.
|
||
|
||
Bob Burton is one of the most successful and feared bounty hunters in
|
||
America. As a follow-up to his best-selling book, BOUNTY HUNTER, Burton
|
||

|
||
subtle details of the trade that only someone who has hunted down humans on
|
||
the streets, down alleys and into drug dens could know. You'll get the
|
||
inside story on obtaining an arrest contract, the right clothing for a
|
||
bust, hunting tricks of the trade, surveillance tips, working with the
|
||
police, hazards of weapons and the use of deadly force, YOUR arrest and how
|
||
to avoid it, and much more.

||
|
||
The text is highlighted with photos and stories from Burton's thousands of
|
||
arrests. Appendices include necessary forms and three invaluable, hard-to-
|
||
obtain legal studies documenting the precedents of past court decisions
|
||
regarding the bail enforcement profession.
