Keep Bailing

Most every county jail has a website, including the Orange County Jail. The websites provide all kinds of information, including inmate information and can be used by anyone who has access to a computer. For Lake County, Sheriff’s are now delaying the posted information by 2 days. Their reasons for delaying the information is that they feel that bail bondsmen are obtaining information about recently booked inmates and heading to the jail to illegally solicit bail business, which is a misdemeanor offense.

Bail bondsmen are believed to be lying to the jailers, indicating they are their at the request of the inmate or inmate’s family for bailing the inmates out. But instead are just initially meeting the inmates and are there to solicit bail business from them. Once there, the bail bondsmen are handing out marketing materials which are then dispersed within the jail itself. This entire scenario is actually illegal in California jails, as well as Florida jails. Lake County Sheriff’s are taking the necessary precautions for making sure the local bail bondsmen are abiding by the law.

Here at Greg Rynerson Bail Bonds we take all necessary steps to ensure we follow the law regarding soliciting at the jails we visit. Our bail agents carry no marketing materials with them. We wear normal professional attire without any company insignias. Why would anyone want to engage with a bondsman who is acting illegally? Don’t they already have enough trouble?
