A face is a powerful identifier, once it's out, your life was sure to get more complicated, then as it will now. Lawmen's job was perhaps the most difficult as it had ever been in history, at a time when lawmen could be targeted just as anonymously as any other person on earth. Technology has graciously provided modern authorities more insight, though now we face the issue of a system designed by centuries, if not millennia, of hardship for the judicial systems of the past to administer justice both accurately and quickly.
Lol realistically Bounty Hunting in Red Dead Online is the proper truth of most of it. It's usually boring and doesn't pay as much as regular day to day jobs.
@@mrmoviemanic1 not true, look up John Riley Duncan, he was a career bounty hunter from 1878 to 1895 and left his law enforcement days behind because bounty hunting paid more.
@Drew Russell I mean. The average wage, depending on your career could be anywhere from 4-7 to even 100$ a month. Do the math on that and you'll find it's nowhere near the potential 500 you could get for bounties in just a few days if you were quick. Of course bounty prices varied too. Some were upwards of 1000-5000$ and some were worth just a few dollars. the issue I see with making bounty hunting a good career is the fact that it's not stable income. You'd have to ration that money to make a living and earning more depends on the bounty and how fast you catch them.
@@mutilatedpopsicles Old West bounty hunting was like being a Realtor today in a middling market. Also, $100 in 1870 equals around $2,000 in today's money. Not a bad payday at all if you can get the job done in two or three weeks. Especially as you said, a monthly wage of $100 was considered excellent pay in 1870 as most people made between $20-$75 a month in 1870.
A little over 6 years ago I semi-retired after working a little over 35 years as a full-time Fugitive Recovery Agent ( The modern name for bounty hunters) Yes, the occupation still exists albeit with far more stringent background checks rules and regulations, required training, and licensing involved. However, the negative stigma associated with historical bounty hunters is still associated and seemingly permanently imprinted in the minds of many Americans to this day and If I am, to be honest, there exist a small percentage of Fugitive Recovery Agents who have through their unprofessional actions provide some justification for our negative public perception. ( Dog Chapman is an example) However, the one thing that hasn't changed is that there are very few individuals who make a living as Fugitive Hunter, to be able to make a good living in this field you need years of experience, along with a reputation for being honest and for getting consistent results, along with other hard-to-obtain qualifications.
I was going to school to attempt to become a FRA (I’ve also heard bail enforcement agent depending on what state you’re licensed in) but having moved to Oregon I can’t get a license here (I guess it’s considered kidnapping and is left to police) so I quit school to focus on working for my two sons and wife since it takes SO much to do the job. Only thing I know though is, even without certain resources that agents would have I was very good at finding people. Such as long lost siblings addresses and numbers that roommates I had thought were dead. I guess I’ll try private investigation in this state.
I do security 👮🏼♂️ & had only 1 direct contact with a group of "bail agents, bounty hunters". Late 2000s. They came onto the hotel 🏨 property to bust a hooker, bail jumper. The group was inept, rude, unethical. They screwed up the arrest & the Asian woman took off. The bounty hunters left empty handed. Pissed! Lol...
Being that I was born in the mid 1970s, my first knowledge of bounty hunters did not come from the wild west. Instead, my first awareness and understanding of bounty hunters came from a galaxy far, far away; that is my first memories of bounty hunters was from "The Empire Strikes Back."
They're were no FBI back in those times. Bounty hunters really had to do some really good search in those times because it was hard finding information in those times to find criminals hiding.

$100 in 1865 was worth about $1800 today. Not a whole lotta scratch. I can see why it was more of a side gig. I'd definitely only go after the higher(preferably dead or alive)bounties.
But think about how costs measure up. My parents are 74, and they remember candy bars being a nickel. Obviously it's not gonna be enough to retire, but what monetary system has ever worked that way?
It wasn't just for the money. Taking out well-known outlaws gave the bounty hunters some fame and respect, which in turn made their life easier on the long run.
If you're a Bounty hunter back in those days, the above price for the bounty would be enough to sustain you. Providing you were just a bare bones bounty hunter living out of your saddlebags. If you spent the reward wisely, you could theoretically get yourself a hot bath in town, a hot meal, a few drinks at the saloon, buy provisions from the general store for you, get some provisions for your horse, ammunition for your weapons, and hop to the next town for search of the next big payday. Hell, even just $50 adjusted for 2022 inflation was enough.
Hey Pam, remember Quint Asper from the late 1950s and early 1960s Gumsmoke? He was Marshal Dillions some time Deputy/ and full*time black Smith...you can still watch him( Bert Reynolds) in syndication shows/ reruns on Metv and TV land classics nearly daily... Anyway,you can also watch another popular blacksmith on reruns from the rifleman ( Nell's nerdy type guy) ok, just a suggestion from an old timer..
And what about Bass Reeves?! He's probably the most if not one of the most badass bounty hunter in history! Especially when you take into consideration that he couldn't read or write and still managed to always bring in the correct person and that he was in law enforcement for over 30 years which is pretty much unheard of when you look back at people like Wyatt Earp and Hickok whose careers only spanned somewhere around 10 years. Bass Reeves brought in some like 200 300 odd bounties over his career or something like that and only ended up killing 14 of his bounties. There's even some speculation that the lone ranger was actually based off Reeves. Dude is one of those legends that most people have never heard of before.

Could I have made it as a bounty hunter? No way. Never ridden a horse and I’m a terrible pistol shot. I’m kind of an introvert, so interrogation of locals wouldn’t go well. I’ll just okay RDR2 and let Arthur and John do my bounty hunting for me.
Same, I'm an introvert and don't like confrontation. Now that's for the bounty hunters working to capture violent outlaws. I couldn't be a bounty hunter to capture escaped or just local people of a certain race or religion. I'm not evil enough or immoral enough for that lol
"$100 or less", considering when, and where you're talking about, that may not have been too bad, when some people made a $1 a day or less. $100 would be 90 days wages (maybe)
My question is: Had Jesse James just started to dust the picture, midway thru dusting or almost done? And why did it need dusted? Was he helping his wife dust like most men should do?
I think he knew it was coming and felt like he didn't have anyone he could truly trust anymore so he just got tired and gave in. Turned his back to the fella and pretty much let him kill him. Atleast that's how the Brad Pitt/Casey Affleck movie made it seem
The next Disney+ project, is a Star Wars/ Back to the Future crossover. Dr. Brown gets a bounty hunter to stay in the car. That way, they'll always have the manned Delorean available. 😬
Very interesting, the bounty hunting missions in the Red dead duology were fun. I couldn't make it as a bounty hunter today or back then. I find the industry (including the bond industry) predatory, unprofessional, and dishonest.
The term ‘Bounty Collector’ and/or ‘Bounty Scavenger’, existed FAR earlier in Britain. The latter-day substitution of ‘Hunter’ doesn't really fully support your case.
All of them. All the professions. Don’t get me wrong, I love content about more famous historical figures and events. But we rarely get to hear or see what life was like for regular people unless something horrible is happening to them.
During the First World War, my great Uncle was sent on a mission with fellow Army cavalry soldiers, to hunt down 2 Texas brothers, who had killed two Texas Rangers, while avoiding the draft. The cavalry chased the two outlaws throughout the west., in many areas that had become national parks. This went on for the duration of the war. The brothers were never caught. I wonder how the two cowboys avoided being caught.
One of my ancestors worked for this bounty hunter agency called the pinkertons, he would spend months upon months with his team tracking down and capturing outlaws, his favourite was a man named Micah Bell who eluded him for over 5 years.
Bounty hunters collected more store credit than the actual payout(1 free room,one free bath and shave, ammo for their protection and if the town had a blacksmith shoes for the horse.
My family has ties to a member of the James Younger gang and in college, I lived with and became life long friends with a woman who came from a member of the Pinkertons. We enjoy the balance 🤣
There's a 1979 TV miniseries called Mr. Horn, about Tom Horn, starring David Carradine and Richard Widmark. The guy had a very colorful life; the miniseries only shows two periods of his life: his activities as tracker for the Army chasing Geronimo, and his bounty hunter last times, with the boy's death, Horn's trial and execution. Much more historically accurate than the Steve McQueen film.
I guess technically that I'M a bounty hunter by these standards. I work under contract with the magistrate court of the county I live in to attempt to clear the years long backlog of unserved warrants. Even now it's not a full time gig. I also work security at a bar, own a couple of vending machines, and do some veteran advocate work.
Completely off-topic but it caught my eye. I think this is the first time I have seen AI generated pics in an info vid like this one. Wave of the future.
Please give us a video about the history of Bushwackers in not only the early wars, but those who went out on their own to capture slaves, fight armies, fight neighbors, or just be awful.

I work under contract with the magistrate court of the county I live in to attempt to clear the years long backlog of unserved warrants. Even now it's not a full time gig. I also work security at a bar, own a couple of vending machines, and do some veteran advocate work.
Completely off-topic but it caught my eye. I think this is the first time I have seen AI generated pics in an info vid like this one. Wave of the future.
