One of the only positive attributes of living and working in Illinois LE: no bounty-hunters. Not only that, but out-of-state bounty hunters have no authority or legal shielding. Even if they had legal justification to enter the brother’s home (which they clearly didn’t) this would be a straight up Home Invasion, and they’d get to enjoy some Bubba-time of their own.
Not for long though. Remember, it’s still Illinois...so they’d parole in ~6 months.
