Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Bounty hunters operate under different legal constraints compared to ordinary police officers. They are allowed more leeway in pursuing and apprehending individuals who have skipped bail because these individuals are considered "escaped prisoners" in a legal sense. This status grants bounty hunters certain liberties in their methods of recapture that are not typically available to law enforcement officers, such as entering a fugitive's home without a warrant.
