Maryland Bounty Hunters like to have all possible exits covered before they plan on entering a house. If a fugitive hears something going on at the front door and tries to escape out the back or a side window they will be greeted by another fugitive recovery agent. In this video we can see that one Maryland Bounty Hunter has already gained entrance from the back door and allows his partner to enter in through the front.
For this specific target, the bounty hunters got a tip from people in the neighborhood that he always takes his kid to school in the morning around 8:30am. Other than that, the neighbors never really see him all that often. From this info, the bounty hunters arrived at the defendant's house early in the morning and waited for movement in the house.
Shortly after they arrived at the house a light turned on and they could see a person moving around inside the house. From this they were able to determine with almost absolute positivity that their target was inside. As you can see from the video, they gained entrance and found the defendant calmly sitting on his couch.
Rather than forcefully cuffing the defendant and taking him into custody, the bounty hunters calmly ask all the necessary questions that need to get answered. You can hear the bounty hunters inquiring about the girl that the defendant was going to originally take to school, and about anybody else that was present in the home. Most people believe bounty hunting is all about being rough and tough, but there are protocols and procedures a bounty hunter must take before taking brute physical action.
