Fugitive recovery
Fugitive recovery refers to the process of locating and apprehending individuals who have skipped out on their bail or are wanted by law enforcement. Often performed by bail bondsmen or bounty hunters, this practice helps ensure that those who have been released on bail appear for their court dates. Fugitive recovery agents use various methods, including surveillance and interviewing associates, to track down fugitives. It is a legal activity, and agents may have certain rights to detain suspects, but they must operate within the law, respecting the rights of individuals during the recovery process.
