How to legitimately go after CMKX insiders, just before you release them give them a friendly handshake:

Bounty Hunter
For those of you who can't hold a day job, you might consider bounty hunting. Since the romantic notion of men being brought in dead or alive for a price on their head is almost gone, you end up working for bail bondsmen, not the most romantic of employers. They will pay you a finder's fee so they don't have to cough up the entire amount of the court-imposed bail when their client doesn't show.

The job does not require much training or even much of anything except a pair of handcuffs and a little skip-tracing education. (Don't believe everything you see on "Renegade." It isn't necessary to have a Lorenzo Lamas physique, long hair or a Harley.) What you get for bringing in bad people is between 10 and 30 percent of the fugitives' bail from the grateful bondsmen. Their clients will not be happy to see you and, in most cases, will try to elude you, since you have neither an attractive uniform nor a big gun. If you have a permit to carry a gun, you are not always allowed to use it. You need a license to operate in Indiana and Nevada but in other states, you are essentially making a citizen's arrest, and if you end up with broken bones or holes in you, it's your problem. Some states don't like bounty hunters; you can't practice your business in Illinois, Kentucky or Oregon, for example.

There are about 2000 bounty hunters (50-100 are active) in the U.S. who return about 20,000 fugitives each year. It is estimated that about 35,000 folks jump bail (don't appear in court) and about 87 percent are brought back by bounty hunters. Most of these hunters don't make much money. The lower the bail, the less serious the crime, the less money they make, the easier the errant crooks or fugitives (don't forget they are innocent until proven guilty) are to find.

There is a market for high-end bounty hunters. There are many fugitive terrorists with very big prices on their heads. But you will need a working command of Arabic, Persian, French and some tribal dialects. You will need to be fully conversant with Islam and the Koran and be able to travel around Afghanistan and Pakistan. If you're caught, you will be lucky if you are shot.
