ATTENTION PRODUCERS/JOURNALISTS: BOUNTY HUNTER! "There is no hunting like the hunting of man, and those who have hunted armed men long enough and liked it, never care for anything else thereafter" -Ernest Hemingway

GIVE YOUR LISTENERS A RARE AND FASCINATING LOOK INTO AND IMPORTANT BUT LITTLE KNOWN ARM OF LAW ENFORCEMENT: THE PROFESSIONAL FUGITIVE RECOVERY AGENT.

DID YOU KNOW:

-That fugitive recovery agents apprehend 78% of fugitives from justice in the U.S.?

-That fugitive recovery agents actually have more arrest authority than police and can transport prisoners across state lines without extradition and enter a home without a warrant?

-That over 13,000 fugitive recovery agents operate in the U.S. and made over 52,000 arrests last year?

-That anyone can be a fugitive recovery agent with no prior law enforcement or military experience?

Fugitive recovery agents (also known as bail enforcement agents or "bounty hunters") are one of the most important weapons in law enforcements' arsenal in the fight against crime. Yet these dedicated men and women work in the background with little acclaim and are often portrayed in an inaccurate light.

SCOTT OLSON, one of the nations' top fugitive recovery agents and director of the National Institute of Bail Enforcement, the number one industry association in the country, is available to tell the true story of what it's like to work in this exciting and expanding field. Scott has over 15 years experience in the military, executive protection, private investigation and bail enforcement. Scott can answer these questions and more:

-What techniques, resources and methods do fugitive recovery agents use to apprehend fugitives?

-Can agents really carry weapons and enter homes without a warrant, and under what authority do they operate?

-Can agents cross state and national borders and bring a fugitive back without extradition?

-How can a person start their own business as a fugitive recovery agent, how much money can they make, and what type of person will be successful in this field?

-How do the police and the courts respond to this industry?

The answers to these questions will surprise you. And best of all, Scott will entertain and amuse your listeners with his true-to-life personal anecdotes of experiences in the field. Scott has been known to root through trash dumpsters, sit in trees, hang out in biker bars and crack houses and spend long hours on surveillance in pursuit of fugitives. He has posed as a concerned relative, delivery person, repairman, sweepstakes representative and a homeless person. Trickery, deception and the telephone are the top tools of his trade. He says the life of the professional bounty hunter is 93% boredom and 3% sheer terror.
