CUMBERLAND, Md. - David Smith and Jeremiah J. Arbogast, two fugitive recovery agents based in Cumberland, recently apprehended Marvin Bucy, a fugitive from Berlin, Pa. Arbogast, a certified bail enforcement investigator, noted that he and apprentice Smith had been chasing Bucy since March and found him hiding in his mother’s closet in Berlin. Bucy was wanted for driving on a revoked license and second-offense DUI. Bucy will be transported to the Potomac Regional Jail in Augusta. As a bail enforcement agent Arbogast enforces failure to appear in court warrants for people out on bail bond. Agents like Arbogast are policed by the United States Professional Bail Bond Investigators Association (USPBI), headquartered in San Antonio. Arbogast, who travels all over the United States to catch fugitives, noted that once he receives a call from a bail bondsman it may take anywhere from a couple of days to a couple of months to apprehend the fugitive. “We deal with anywhere from minor misdemeanors to extreme felony cases,” he said. “And we occasionally get into altercations.” Arbogast, who recently obtained his one-hundredth criminal apprehension award, said that he typically catches over 100 fugitives a year. Arbogast, a Wiley Ford resident, attended Fort Hill High School. He was in the Marine Corps for four years and obtained his certification at the National Institute of Bail Enforcement (NIBE) in Chicago. NIBE certification consists of 40 hours of training and was developed to aid those with little or no previous experience in bail fugitive arrests to acquire the basic knowledge and skills necessary to enter the profession and to develop their own business. Like Arbogast, Smith will attend NIBE to receive his certification training. “Bail enforcement agents have gotten a bad rep,” Arbogast said. “People have the misconception that we are like Dog the Bounty Hunter. Our tactics are not as harsh as his.” |
