Both of my uncles are bounty hunters. One even had his own show for awhile, American bounty hunter in the 90's. So I am a big fan of what they do.

Once again, Cap'n you hit the nail on the head. As for you self-styled conservatives you truly might want to try and get your facts straight. I note that none of the three of you live anywhere near La Conchita or Santa Barbara and know that none of you actually followed the trial or the outcome.
Luster's crimes, if there were any, and there may have been, involved claims of consensual sex and nights of heavy drinking and GHB use. He was convicted but the rest is as set out by the Cap'n above.
Dog wasn't "helping" U.S. Authorities in any way. In fact, they had declined his help. The only reason he even went after Luster was in the hope of making more of a name for himself.

There is no place in a civilized society for bounty hunters. They really are a throwback to the days of the wild wild west.

A few years ago in Mesa, Arizona a group of bounty hunters broke into a home unannounced in the middle of the night dressed in black with hoods on and guns out to apprehend a criminal who had jumped bail. The owners shot at the intruders and he was killed in the gunfight and his wife was seriously injured. Turned out, oops, wrong house. No charges against the bounty hunters due to the fact that they were acting as bounty hunters at the time and are allowed to break into homes under Arizona law and are allowed to defend themselves in doing so. John McCain promised he would look into changes in the law in Arizona but nothing has been done since that occurrence.
Do you, conservative or liberal, really want a society where a group of men dressed all in black, with masks and weapons can break into your home and kill individuals inside by mistake and as a citizen you have no recourse if its an "honest mistake". That is what you currently have and what a bounty hunter can and often does. A bounty hunter acting in the "scope and course of his job" is even immune from a civil judgment in Arizona so the family got nothing.
