the bounty hunter makes sense...the bails bonds men pays them to get the fugitive they posted bond for.


But where does the bails bond man get their $ I only see them loosing $

actually good question.

well looked it up....they charge service fees. And sicne you get the bond back when the defendant shows to court it basically an investmant until court

cool.

Basically, if you're arrested, you call a bail bondsman. They pay the bond to get you out of jail and you pay them 10% of the bond. They keep your 10% and the court gives them their 90% back when you show up in court. If you don't show, the bail bondsman is out quite a bit of money usually, so they hunt your ass down like you owe them money, which you do.

so in this explanation where the hell do they make money? Its break even and then when people run they loose lots of money and go into the red?

How do they make money??

They only put up a percentage to the courts, while they appear to be putting up a full amount, so when they get paid form joe-schmoe that is where they make their money, also when the accused shows the full bail is returned.

yeah
thats how it works, now i wanna go and get a tv show and hunt
people down too.

They keep the 10% fee that you pay them to bail your ass out.

yea but without getting 100% back from the courts it woudl be break even with the 90% you said theyd be getting back....

Ahh shit, no, what I meant was they get their 90% or the total bail back, and keep your 10%
