1:36 pm
to be. freedom has a price the more severe the crime the bigger the in order to get out of jail before . for example. fifty thousand dollars. twenty five thousand dollars. the contract stipulates that. this person will be and will be held accountable. eighty percent of the money needed for the release the remaining ten percent is paid for by the criminal or his relatives. a contract to cosign by the offender gives full power to the bondsman. always he goes to court we have no problem but the minute he misses court and the courts don't notice let me know that he is actually actually did go to court that's
1:37 pm
when my about one department takes over it all comes of being a bounty hunters look at tony brown actually. we are going to follow the bounty hunters who tracked down petty criminals they are very popular but also controversial this week we are going to try and catch two drug dealers with rewards of thirty five thousand dollars and fifty thousand dollars on their heads. but they are not alone the united states government has its own law enforcement agency dealing with fugitive they are the well known u.s. marshals popularized by hollywood thanks to special from the justice department we were able to follow them in action marshals seek the most dangerous fugitives like two gang members wanted on murder charges and whose rewards are over a million dollars.

1:40 pm
supervised by his two assistants that's all i remember. i don't know how i got so lucky to be with you know everybody in this room but i'm looking for but i think. maybe other people don't know what to do they don't know how to go about doing. all this. not as good at it as rob and his partner is see them here because. they're probably a lot younger niamh a lot more patient than i am and i just want to go out and get the job done and all that but they they tend to be better at it than i am. the stuff that i do i mean a lot of people that i get to the front door then once where the print door hey you guys with the training you got to go. so that's where we're.
1:41 pm
1:42 pm

1:43 pm

1:45 pm
well here's the thing we really don't disclose information when it gets this close because we don't know who you really are. you could be somebody that's just trying to trick us. very good and. well i think we've got to. go friends cousin is still on the phone with padilla she is ready to get. an even agrees to lead them to. the cousin make sure the dealers here. continues to ask for information comes out with the fugitive in another house in the neighborhood.
1:46 pm
we're following. is the lady that's responsible for the bond she has she is the. girlfriend. the bounty hunters wonder if going to be able to pin down the fugitives location. time goes by and padilla starts having doubts suddenly the cousin comes out and gets in her car that's the signal for them to move. their. people or their. what are you wearing what you're wearing a white t. shirt blue shorts let's go. to the back. of the house surrounded weapons at the ready.
1:47 pm
to hunters break into the house without a warrant they have no concern for the children terrified by the assault but how is the target escape just they can forget about the five thousand dollars. if the bounty hunters are in possession of a warrant they have less power than police officers as it is against the law to barge into people's homes. to reach their goals they use strength and surprise tactics. runs to the back alley to prevent any escape attempts. but then a radio message comes through. has neutralized the dealer with the taser. jumping over the fence.
1:48 pm
was a fugitive who was shot with five thousand volts. unable to resist running over. you why are you doing it for. school. watch here i can't really get that one look here let's get out of there could tell by the way god put it that this could certainly. get away the coverage. that you have right. got a weapon so sure. she. could. tell she well i'm sorry all right. stand up stand up. because you're right no no. yes we'll do our little whatever you.
1:49 pm
so i don't be sorry so i'm sorry. we're. looking for a. son but for all you got him. you get the price rises a. french television babyhood i'm out to bring him back i don't know larry i'm so in the back yard to jump some fences ran around tackling a battery let's rethink taser nobody would like a way to. understand. that . you know they're going to come it's you know no you don't get out there don't you believe that when you're really i don't care how much. sorry sir. because i stuck with three grandchildren. my my daughter started drinking heavily
1:50 pm
and just left the kids she better damn. well if they do hit me with that taser right that's. a little bit. of. a he's got a bit of competition. could win to calm me. down hundreds of fans and she did. more earthy shutting down cars this is you know now the faster. and faster. you know you're tired this is the first time just happens to be. i mean. when i was younger i ran one time. this is the second time you're. already knew i was going to jail how long have you been
1:51 pm
a fugitive for seven months so i was your life for seven months. worst thing that happened but i'm going to do i. know. that. this is the end of the room for the fugitive and another trophy for padilla in thirty five years the man hunting is delivered more than four thousand offenders to the justice department but not everybody in the state approves of the methods used by both hunters in los angeles. laurie levenson a criminal law specialist is very familiar with bounty hunter legislation. bounty hunters are sort of a throwback and archaic part of our law and it goes back to a time when people would write out on their horses in the wild west and pick up these fugitives important to the sheriff for prosecution we don't exactly have that system anymore that way i think some bounty hunters are really dangerous because
1:52 pm
they don't get the same training and they don't have the same standards to become a police officer you have to go through a long process of selection and have to go through months of the academy and be trained and then you're accountable to the court if you violate someone's civil rights batting average don't do that they go through a very abbreviated if any kind of training and when they go out there. and you have to hope that nothing bad happens. however the biggest game still eludes the bounty hunter. they fall into maine one of the oldest u.s. law enforcement agencies the u.s. marshals. this is tony burke a living nightmare for criminals of southern california. tony leads the special task force in charge of arresting the most dangerous fugitives and he loves his job . but. man hunting is the daily job of tony burke.
1:53 pm
fifty of them are ready to intervene in southern california on the slightest lead to apprehend a fugitive they are quick to top class soldiers with assault rifles satellite phones and armored vehicles in case of a shootout. their targets are the real criminals the ones which have nothing to lose you know what the task force will form for office to get. our focus of violent crime you know rape robbery murder. you know. kidnapping the more violent crimes because those are those are people when you get off the street i mean there are violent actions against people in the community. these are lead cops have nothing in common with bounty hunters to become a u.s. marshal you need to have graduated from law school or to have served in the military tony for instance is an ex marine. i've got john wiener getting like four
1:54 pm
people together. here this public enemy has been on the run for nineteen months. he killed one of his rivals in cold blood his head is worth two million dollars. tony's men have located him in a residential neighborhood north of los angeles. has been a u.s. marshal for ten years is one of those in charge of the arrest from venezuela. thirty eight years old has two kids and a wife that is a flight attendant in his unit each marshal manages about thirty cases. dangerous people. most of them. not and nothing scares the. futurist since you never knew their reaction during
1:55 pm
the arrest. so you have to be very careful. looking like california. and his colleagues don't resemble a typical american policeman. in order to keep a low profile u.s. marshals where plainclothes unmarked cars his cars like my office i spend more time . office. tried to defend their territory to sell drugs. from the police.
1:56 pm
in a few hours andres will once again have to confront armed criminals. it is never seen here for example i never know what's going to happen today. there might be nothing going on. they're going on this. that's what i like about my job i said you never know what you're going to do next and every day is interesting he's. going to. the u.s. marshals meet in a parking lot there are twelve of them. the man in charge is rolled morales one of the best specialists on anti gang warfare. his orders are clear and accurate but if every move away either on the east side of the building or the west side of the building and we have time to maneuver and get in this way and get out we're all right.
1:57 pm
again we're not chasing simple people were chasing killers and you've got to keep that in mind i mean this person shot somebody he's looking at the death penalty or life in prison soul killing one more person or killing a cop doesn't mean anything to him you know it doesn't mean any difference for him so he'd be very willing to shoot us if we give him the chance so we've got to be careful and i don't know for freight is the word but definitely. there hasn't been anything yet on t.v. . it is to get the maximum political impact. the source material is what helps keep journalism honest. we want to present. something else.
2:00 pm
greece faces a new stalemate as pro and the parties go neck and neck putting the euro survival on the line. the u.n. sponsored peace plan for syria shaken to the core observers suspend their mission. as both the regime and the rebels fight. and egyptians cast their final ballots for their post revolution future but many are disenchanted with the choice between an islamist and a former mubarak official. the back of the past seven days top stories and the latest developments this is the weekly on. greece is looking at another political stalemate with exit poll figures putting the new democracy party just ahead of left wing series or it's
2:01 pm
a vote that could result in the rejection of the country's current deal and even see athens exit the single currency. as in the greek capital. new democracy out front but only just between twenty seven point five and thirty point five percent of the vote there just ahead a series of the ones on the radical left would be stirring so much controversy ever really since may the sixth place down between twenty seven and thirty percent of the vote and that's still just ahead of the rest now what we're looking at here is a possible situation whereby no one again as we've made the states can form a ruling government a majority government to thirty six percent of the vote therefore they're going to have to look elsewhere to other allies have also been running in today's election for a new democracy that's likely to be the past of the socialist party who alongside them of upheld austerity in the recent government now they've been holding around ten to twelve percent of the vote so far.
