THIS…WILL….BLOW….YOUR….MIND.
So I made a new friend at the new gym today, a Bail Bondsmen. & in between sets we were shooting the breeze & I asked him “So…how do you guys find most of your Jumpers?” I thought he would say The people who posted their bail would turn them in or Former partners in crime turned them in after some Roughing up or something…maybe even Predator drones or something.
Know how they catch most of the Perps?
FACEBOOK.Yup, They just start watching Facebook, watching the guys family & friends for posts about “My Dad is coming to take me for a haircut” or some crap then be waiting there to pick them up.
I had to admit I was slack jawed 😮 I couldn’t believe it, we’re talking High Risk warrant type guys too. I was blown away.

As you know I started doing this back in 89. In 1992 I moved back home briefly. My cousin was a bail enforcement agent and I asked him to teach me the ropes. I even accompanied him on two arrests. Sadly in 93 he died in a car accident. I came back to Florida then. Most of the stuff he showed me back then is all obsolete now. The library no longer has reverse directories or even out of town directories. In those days it was a lot of footwork doing skip tracing, mostly just asking questions and getting names of friends, relatives, co-workers, etc. So Facebook is the new tool eh? Yeah that makes a lot of sense really. Thanks for posting this.
