Another day, another plot twist.

Hollywood actor and conspiracy theorist Randy Quaid said he and his wife Evi are suing the company that helped get them out of jail.

The pair initially found themselves in hot water after they were arrested and charged with squatting after they were found living inside a home they sold 12 months prior.

Assault with Odd Weapons

People are assaulted every day.

Most often, it is simply an assault with a fist or a foot. Other times it can be a baseball bat or a knife or a gun.

Then, there are times when the weapon is something completely unexpected.
Yes, Deer
Domestic disputes are rarely a laughing matter. They often end with arrest and tears.

In 2011, Chelsea Harrison, 23, was arrested for assaulting her live-in ex-boyfriend with a set of deer antlers after he broke down the door to the house the two shared.

Terry Nowakowski said that he and Harrison were only living together for financial reasons and to …

    Inmate Smackdown At The Jail Formerly Known For Choreographed Dance

Inmate Smackdown At The Jail Formerly Known For Choreographed Dance

A Philippine jail that had previously gained notoriety for it's dancing inmates has said it's now setting its sights on producing world-class boxers.

It all started late last year when a former amateur boxer-turned-felon reportedly asked jail officials if they'd consider building a boxing ring.  Sure, the flash-mob style dance choreography was fun for some, but it wasn't for everyone.

He said a growing number of inmates realized they too wanted to find a productive way to spend their time.  Sports, he said, was their answer.

A consultant at the jail donated a few pairs of boxing …

    What Not To Do: Visiting A Jail While On The Lam Will Get You Arrested

What Not To Do: Visiting A Jail While On The Lam Will Get You Arrested

You would think if a person was aware they had outstanding arrest warrants, making a voluntary trip to county jail would be at the bottom of their to-do list.

But alas, criminals don't always make a smart-decisions list and check it twice, and when they don't, they often find themselves in trouble.

That's exactly what happened last week, when two people involved in shooting a FOX television pilot visited the Cook County Jail.

The first man, 52-year old James Suhajda, was found to have a decades old warrant stemming from an old domestic violence arrest.  The other man, whose name has not …

Strange Arrests of Famous Musicians

It is not so unusual to hear of a celebrity being arrested for one offense or another.

But sometimes we just have to scratch are head in wonder when they get into trouble with the law...
Dylan: Trespassing
Bob Dylan has an unmistakable voice, but his looks can leave him looking unfamiliar to even the biggest fans.

In 2009, while touring in New Jersey with Willie Nelson and John Mellencamp, Dylan decided to go out into the neighborhood for some fresh air.

Some of the residents, though, did not recognize him for the celebrity he is and called police to report the appearance of …

Criminal Magic

For most of us, magic is something you see at children’s parties and Vegas shows. We don’t generally see magic playing a large role in our daily lives.

So, when we hear of someone being arrested in connection with some “bad magic,” it can make us scratch our heads in wonder.

While the majority of Americans are skeptics when it comes to magic, there are some who give it a lot of credence. Many people in countries around the world still believe highly in the practice of witches, shamans and voodoo priests.

It is when those beliefs and practices take a dark …

Bondsman Charged With Attempted Murder For Shooting Bail Skip

Defendant is just one bad apple in a landscape of honest company owners
Although most bail bondsmen conduct business on the up and up, you'll occasionally hear a story about someone who goes rogue.

This is one of those stories.

A 33 year-old Alabama bondsman has been booked on attempted murder charges after allegedly a client because he didn't go to court.

McGiboney called a 21 year-old client last week saying he needed to come to his office.  His company was going to be on the hook for paying the man's bail forfeiture, he said, because the defendant never bothered to show up …

OC Teacher With Hundreds of Pythons Arrested

At 888bailbond.com we often write about Unusual Laws.

Nearly every time, we remind folks that yup, this is a law because someone did it and lawmakers had to protect the public.

So, when we wrote about Unusual Animal Laws, we did not even think to include "It is illegal to keep hundreds of pythons stacked in your Orange County home."

Maybe if we had, we wouldn't be writing about this...
Hoarding pythons will get you arrested
A Santa Ana schoolteacher was taken into custody last week after authorities found he'd been keeping hundreds, literally hundreds of python snakes both dead and alive in plastic …

Google Goes To Court

As bail bondsmen, we're no strangers to the courtroom.

Many people will never see the inside of a courtroom and we usually don't think of our favorite place to search, shop and connect in terms of courts.

However, even the biggest brands in the country are not above the courtroom. And Google is no exception. The bigger the brand, the bigger the target.

From disgruntled ex-employees to competitors to the odd random user, Google has perhaps seen time inside a courtroom than we have.

It seems that the more successful a company becomes, the more people want to take it on.

There are some …
