Bounties: Colorado’s Most Wanted–Bounty Hunters

Filed under: Bounties,Colorado — Tags: , , , , , — Matt @ 10:47 AM

   I wanted to put this up on FJ because this Rewards 4 Fugitives website is a gold mine. I know it is an older story, but it is still relevant and I had no idea it was out there. This site is extremely simple to navigate and this is exactly the kind of thing that could benefit from the Bounty Hunter Mobile Application.

   On the website, they list hundreds of wanted fugitives posted by bail bond companies throughout the nation, and they list exactly what the fugitives are worth if you are able to find them.  The website was originally started in Colorado by a bondsman there but as you can see, it is US wide and just click on your state to see who is wanted.

   The other cool thing about this website is how easy it is for a bail bond agent to list a fugitive they are looking for.  Now imagine if that bail bond agent could easily update information on the fugitive by the minute, and post any last known location information via a geo-location feature on a mobile application?  Cool stuff and I hope some readers out there are able to make a little coin and catch some fugitives with this resource. –Matt

Colorado’s Most Wanted- Bounty Hunters

by Deborah Takahara

29 December, 2007

A Denver bondsman and bounty hunter has a new way to track down fugitives. Ben Mares started a website called “rewards4fugitives.com”. He said, “the website itself is just a posting avenue for bondsmen to put their people up there. The public can see who’s wanted and can contact that bondsman.” Rewards range from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars, paid by the bondsmen. They say if they turn fugitives into the court, they save money. And bondsmen say this website is already working. John Trujillo had a fugitive featured and within 24 hours, he had several tips. He said, “you could knock me over with a feather. i was surprised. I didn’t think I would get so many tips within a 24 hour period.”

  2. Interesting to that bounty hunters in a lot of states have more arrest powers then the police do. A bonds men in West Virginia and a lot of states can even go to other states lock the run away up in the back of a car and drive him back home across state lines no hearing nothing. No problem!

  3. Interesting indeed. I’ve done this for a lot of years and learned very quickly that 99% of the time police do not know anything about Bounty Hunting laws.
    The best way to handle them if they show up is confidence and the Warrant.Never show fear or lack of confidence. You have the power and every right to be there.
    Most would rather see the wanted individual out of their area anyway.
    Would like to join a good crew again if any one is looking.
    Took a bit of time off. I prefer intelligence over chasing rabbits out of holes to watch em run like DBH.
    Duane Chapman stole my look but I’ve looked like this since 1976 so I’m not changing .
