CHAPMANS

This proves that Tim has not been forgotten. Here is Tim with the Posse at the 100th Episode Celebration last October. Tim is family. Our thanks To Bellmutt for providing the video.

In the wake of all of the hype surrounding the 3 part series of DTBH episodes currently airing on A&E, we have decided to conduct a brief review to determine if the series is living up to expectations. The series starts with a straightforward premise: arrest Marco Padilla. When the initial attempt is unsuccessful, the Chapmans begin digging into Padilla’s family and friends, and the hunt spirals into a quagmire of identity theft and other fugitives who may or may not have useful information. Each lead the Chapmans obtain opens up multiple avenues of investigation, and their search ends up expanding in difficulty beyond any hunt previously aired.

What makes this series unique is how complicated the search becomes and how much the Chapmans’ entire skill set is tested. There is much more action in this series than in most of the previous episodes. In addition, there is increased participation from local law enforcement, the legal system, and local media. Prior to this series, the show was becoming stagnant. Each hunt was predictable and the show was repetitive. This series is much more involved and detailed, and helps inject new life into DTBH. We are aware that as of today, Marco Padilla remains at large. Interestingly, this does not seem to detract from the series. It is still intriguing to follow the Chapmans working a more difficult hunt than their usual fare. We look forward to seeing the concluding episode on Wednesday.

Marcus Schrenker, a former money manager accused of misleading his investors, is expected to plead guilty on Friday to faking his own death in a plane crash. The occasion has inspired Bloomberg News to take a look at the common mistakes that financiers make when they turn into fugitives.

Neither Mr. Schrenker (pictured above) nor Sam Israel, the hedge fund swindler who staged a suicide, managed to elude the authorities for very long — something Bloomberg chalks up to “lack of preparation for the rigors of life on the lam.”

As Duane Chapman, the star of A&E’s “Dog the Bounty Hunter,” rather poetically put it: “A criminal’s life has nothing but ups and downs, whereas a white-collar criminal has never seen the dark side, so when he enters that realm, he is lost.”

What are the do’s and don’ts for financial types hoping to make themselves disappear?

First of all, faking one’s own death rarely throws the authorities off for long if there’s no body left behind, Bloomberg says. Having lots of cash is essential, and heading for a campground that doesn’t require identification can work, for a time.

Leaving maps behind with certain pages torn out — something Mr. Schrenker reportedly did — certainly doesn’t help.

Starting Wed at 9pm on A&E, 3 intense weeks, 1 fugitive, 3 hours of hunting, very exciting!!! on DOG THE BOUNTY HUNTER

This week, a 3 hour DOG mini-series begins. One fugitive, 3 hours of chasing over 3 weeks of hour long episodes at 9pm EST. We are told by A&E they are 3 of the best DOG episodes ever !!!

From our research team. These facts have been backed up by witnesses.

1) DOG did not report the alleged gun shots. The neighbors called the police. This was not the actions of a person looking for media coverage.

2) The Fugitive was wanted for alleged gun crimes.

3) DOG did not want fugitive to face anymore charges. The fugitive was taken into custody and DOG shook his hand.

4) The media came to DOG asking questions.

5) DOG and crew heard a loud bang as did witnesses.

6) The crime scene was swarmed with witnesses as are many scenes
now where DOG and crew are spotted. The site was not taped off by
Police and was not a clean crime scene. Any evidence could have easily vanished.

This clown of a public service asking for charges is way out of line. What a waste of taxpayers money. Let us use his salary for drug programs, rehabs and causes that matter. Not someone seeking a spotlight.

Please register at this site and support DOG helping out. Oregon needs bounty hunters. No hiding for the perps

Bounty hunters may soon ply their trade in Oregon

Bail bondsmen may soon be back in Oregon.

Oregon is one of four states that doesn’t allow commercial operators to put up bail for criminal defendants — and then hunt them down if the alleged bad guys bail on court. House Bill 2682 would require an interim committee to study the issue before the next legislative session.

Bondsmen have been banned in Oregon since 1974. Their lobbyist, Paul Romain, says that means there are criminals living in Oregon who are literally thumbing their noses at the law.

“The whole idea is to look this system over and see if we want to change (it),”he said.

The vote in Senate Rules was 3-to-1, with Senate Minority Leader Ted Ferrioli, R-John Day saying no. The other Republican on the panel, Sen. Jason Atksinon, R-Central Point, said he didn’t think they needed to pass legislation to tell an interim committee what to do.

“But (Sen.) Ginny (Burdick) gave me the look and asked me to be courteous, and I will be,” he said. “In the faint hope of meeting Dog the Bounty Hunter, I will vote yes.”

The bill heads to the full Senate. It has already cleared the House.

Real DOG facts (Orignially posted by the DTBH Website Administrator.)

Body: Shooting At Dog Incident.

Few Facts on DOG shooting report. The Media was saying DOG did that for attention.

1) No one from the Posse’ or the show called the Police about the shooting to report it, neighbors did.

2) DOG did not do it for the attention. In fact, he did not respond to requests for a statement as he did not want further charges. Fugitive was caught and it was time to move on

3) The shooting site was not roped off by police or investigators. Fans were all over the place. This was not a clean crime scene. The area was swarming with people

Also, in regards to the vehicle flipping that was being chased by DOG according to media.

1) Again, the media was not accurate. DOG was not driving or following the truck, it was in fact Beth. Odd fact was, this rollover happened on the same date, May 19th, that DOG lost his daughter Barbara a few years ago.
