Don't give me too much credit LOL. A lot of times the folks he wanted were just the ones that didn't pay him all the deposit, or hadn't skipped but didn't call and check in with him as his contract with them required. They had "skipped" on him, not on the courts.

NC law allowed him to re-apprehend and return them to police custody if they violated the civil contract they had with him. Probably only 15% were those that missed a court date. Most just didn't stay up with him as required, so it wasn't as if they were the most dangerous in my case.

You guys are the ones never knowing what you were getting into when you walk up to a door. We always had the option to wait, or just go work another file if it didn't look "right". I learned a lot working with him, and much of it was related to the kinds of crap LEO's have to deal with on a daily basis from the not so respectable elements of society.
