Palmdale Detectives are seeking the public’s help in identifying Copper Thieves From Bail Bondsman In Palmdale

Palmdale Detectives are seeking the public’s help in identifying suspects that caused over $100,000 dollars in damage while stripping wires from a concrete plant near 7186 East Avenue T.

On January 13th, Palmdale Station Deputies responded to the “Rialto Concrete Products” plant for a burglary investigation in which the suspect(s) entered the property through a cut chain link fence and stripped over 20 electrical boxes inside of the plant. The plant manufactures concrete piping for various construction companies.

Employees of the plant were unsure of the amount of wiring the suspects got away with from the theft, but estimate the repair costs to be in the range of $100,000. Detectives believe the thieves were after the copper core inside the wiring. Palmdale Station has seen a rise in thefts related to metal items being taken in an attempt to recycle them for money.

Shots fired near school. Parents flee. Suspects Drive Backwards And Ram Deputies Patrol Car. Parolees arrested From Bail Bondsman In Compton

Several minutes before school let out, Compton Station deputies heard gunshots in the vicinity of Longfellow Elementary School, 1100 Block of South Dwight Avenue, Compton.

They checked the area and saw people fleeing for their safety who pointed to a grey car involved in a car-to-car shooting. The deputies saw a grey Lexus with two male black occupants in the street parallel to a parked vehicle.

The suspects in the Lexus, upon seeing the deputies, immediately drove in reverse and recklessly endangered several parents waiting to pick up their children from school. The deputies immediately initiated a vehicle pursuit of the shooting suspects.

The pursuit terminated at the end of Caldwell Street, just east of Oleander Avenue, when the suspects abruptly drove backwards and intentionally rammed the pursuing Sheriff’s patrol car. The deputies took quick action and were able to take both suspects into custody without further incident.

The subsequent investigation identified the 18-year old victim of the shooting and found him to be unharmed. Evidence was collected, which included the recovery of a pistol believed to be used in the shooting.

The suspects, 21 year-old, Corey Coleman, a resident of Compton, and 22 year-old, Darius Oliver, a Long Beach resident, were booked for Attempt Murder and Assault with a Deadly Weapon on Peace Officers, and are being held without bail on parole violations.

The deputies involved in the pursuit were not injured, nor were any parents or students.

On 01/12/12, two juvenile offenders assigned to Camp Mendenhall, located at 42230 N. Lake Hughes Rd. Lake Hughes, walked away from a supervised hike near the camp.

DUI checkpoint this Friday in Palmdale. Drive Sober, Choose Your Ride Home From Bail Bondsman In Palmdale


The Palmdale Sheriff’s Station Traffic Unit will be conducting a DUI Checkpoint on Friday, January 13, 2012 at an undisclosed location within the city limits between the hours of 6:00 p.m. and 2:00 a.m.

DUI checkpoints are a proven enforcement tool effective in reducing the number of persons killed and injured in alcohol involved crashes. Research shows that crashes involving alcohol drop by an average of 20 percent when well-publicized checkpoints are conducted often enough.

Officers will be contacting drivers passing through the checkpoint for signs of alcohol and/or drug impairment. Officers will also check for proper licensing and will strive to delay motorists only momentarily. Drivers caught driving impaired can expect jail, license suspension, and insurance increases, as well as fines, fees, DUI classes, other expenses that can exceed $10,000.

“Over the course of the past three years, DUI collisions have claimed 7 lives and resulted in 88 injury crashes harming 121 of our friends and neighbors,” said Sgt M. Johnston.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), checkpoints have provided the most effective documented results of any of the DUI enforcement strategies, while also yielding considerable cost savings of $6 for every $1 spent. Checkpoints are placed in locations that have the greatest opportunity for achieving drunk and drugged driving deterrence and provide the greatest safety for officers and the public.

“Deaths from drunk and drug-impaired driving are going down in California,” said Christopher J. Murphy, Director of the California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS). “But that still means that hundreds of our friends, family and co-workers are killed each year, along with tens of thousands who are seriously injured. We must all continue to work together to bring an end to these tragedies. If you see a Drunk Driver – Call 9-1-1.”

Funding for this checkpoint is provided to the City of Palmdale by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, targeting those who still don’t heed the message to designate a sober driver.

For statewide and local Avoid DUI Task Force Campaign Enforcement Schedules for the county and Daily DUI Arrest/Fatal Stats for the county and region, visit www.californiaavoid.org. The Program is funded by the California Office of Traffic Safety who reminds everyone to please – Report Drunk Drivers – Call 9-1-1!

Woman threatens bus passengers, force was used, taken to mental observation From Bail Bondsman In Lakewood

On Monday, January 9, 2012, at approximately 5:19 PM, Lakewood Sheriff’s Station deputies received a call of a disturbance at a bus stop located at Artesia Boulevard and Lakewood Boulevard in the city of Bellflower.

The called stated a “Female White, 40 years old, wearing a white sweatshirt”, was causing a disturbance at the bus stop and was threatening awaiting passengers with violence. The caller’s comments included:

“…She is trying to pick a fight on anybody. She almost hit an old man…she seems like she got out of prison… I’ll beat up all you guys…there‘s some ladies here also and we, we’re trying to stay away from her.. and she is trying to pick a fight with anybody...She’s on the bus with us, oh my God…”

The caller said the disturbing party then boarded MTA Bus #266, along with other citizens and continued northbound on Lakewood Boulevard. The caller was also on the bus.

Lakewood Sheriff’s Station deputies were dispatched to the call and stopped the bus northbound on Lakewood Boulevard at Alondra Boulevard in Bellflower.

Deputies boarded the bus and made contact with the disturbing party, a 41-year old woman. The deputies immediately recognized her as an individual who had a history of assaulting deputies and had a propensity for violence.

Deputies said they requested the woman to exit the bus, but she refused, began shouting profanities at them, and threatened to assault them. The deputies stated that a use of force was necessary because she was aggressive. One deputy used an elbow strike that caused her to fall on a nearby seat. Deputies were able to gain control of her and handcuffed her without further incident.

She was transported to an undisclosed hospital, where she was examined by medical professionals. Medical professionals said they did not see any visible sign of injury as a result of the use of force.

She continued to display a combative behavior toward medical staff. She was admitted to the hospital for a 72-hour mental observation hold, under the authority of 5150 of the California State Welfare and Institutions Code. She was not arrested.

She has four prior convictions for assaulting peace officers.
Los Angeles County Sheriff Lee Baca said he was disturbed by the incident. He confirmed it was his understanding the woman was homeless and had a history of mental problems. "She's noted for having verbal conflicts with people in the community, and she's been noted also to get in verbal conflicts with law enforcement," said Sheriff Baca. "And she's assaulted on several occasions law enforcement officers."

"I think I have an obligation to understand what this lady's plight is. And I have a greater obligation to make sure she's just not spending all this time in jail and then when she gets out she's back on the street," Sheriff Baca said.

The use of force and manner in which this incident was handled is under investigation to determine the full facts of what occurred. The investigation will include oversight by the Office of Independent Review.

A tape of the original 9-1-1 call was released to the news media.

Max term for teacher’s aide convicted of sexual assaults of students with disabilities From Bail Bondsman In Los Angeles


A Los Angeles Superior Court judge Thursday imposed the maximum possible sentence on a former high school teacher’s aide convicted of sexually abusing two special education students, the District Attorney’s Office announced.

Deputy District Attorney Rachel Moser Greene of the Sex Crimes Division said 45-year-old Oscar Enrique Santos of La Puente was sentenced to 18 years in state prison. Judge Sam Ohta indicated the prison term may not be served in county jail.

Jurors convicted Santos on Nov. 10, 2011, of 21 felony counts including oral copulation of an incompetent person, oral copulation of a person under 18 and sexual battery by restraint.

The charges involve two girls with developmental disabilities – one of whom is confined to a wheelchair – who were assaulted between 2005 and 2007 when Santos was a teacher’s aide at Garfield High School in East Los Angeles.

At the time, the defendant was responsible for assisting a male student who is gravely disabled. The assaults took place on campus when the girls, then ages 16 and 17, were between classes.

Santos attacked the young women on multiple occasions in an on-campus elevator, keeping the elevator moving up and down between floors while he carried out the assaults, the prosecutor said.

Evidence presented at trial to establish Santos’ pattern of conduct revealed that the defendant had a history of similar complaints as testified to by a third, uncharged victim who Santos unsuccessfully attempted to lure into the elevator.

The case was investigated by the Special Victims Bureau of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.

LEGAL Bail Percentage rate in California

We at All American Bail Bonds have been conducting bail for over ten years and we always seem to get the same questions, due to misconceptions regarding our industry.

the common misconception is that we the bail bondsman have the ability to negotiate below the legal percentage rate set by law, the set rate that all bail bondman are required to charge. The legal percentage in California is no more than 10% but no less than 8% under certain restrictions.

Below are some common questions are client services receive and the appropriate answers.

Q. I called another company who said they charge 3%, why are you charging more?

A. What that company is doing is illegal, it's better known as bait and switch. What their trying to do is get you in the front door and than they drop on you your remaining balance of 7% more. Not cool, but we get this complaint often.

Q. Why can't you charge what ever you want?

A. We as bail bondsman are licensed bail agents AKA Insurance agents licensed through the department of insurance. The department of insurance dictates by law the legal limits of a bond, bail or other, may cost. If a company charges less than the legal limits they are not only breaking the law but also performing in a matter in which you should question their integrity.

Q. What is the Zero Down Bail Program and how much interest do you charge.

A. The Zero Down (No money down programs) are normally based on the guarantee given through the indemnitor. What this means is basically we look at the financial stability, of the indemnitor, such as job history, credit, or even collateral.

As far as interest is concerned, it is illegal for a bail bonding company to charge more than the set rate, such as interest. We as bail bondsman are not a finance company.
Please Note: A Bail Bonding Service can legally charge additional fees such as "agent fees" for travel, notary, or any additional service in addition to their jobs as bail agents.
Personal Note: The additional fees are highly Negotiable, due to the nature of our competitiveness. If you ask, many of these fees may be waived.

Q. What is the lowest legal rate for a Bail Bond?

A. As per Proposition 103 the lowest legal rate that any one Bail Bonding company can charge is 8%, anything less is ILLEGAL.
Please review the California Department of Insurances web site for  their definition.

Q. What if I don't pay, What will happen?

A. The department of insurance has ruled that bail bonding company's can no longer revoke bond when any portion of the bail bond has been paid unless full refund has been given. In other words, non pay of a bail bond turns into a civil matter and if the company revokes the bail bond than the client may be entitled to full return of bail premium.

Please Note: This is a very tricky situation, We at All American Bail Bonds Corporate have a strict policy against the revocation of a bail bond for non pay, but I have had other people tell us that it happened to their loved ones. The bail bonding company isn't going to say they revoked the bail bond for non pay, their going to make up some of other excuse as to why they performed in the manner they did. If you find yourself in the position of a revoked bond, with no just cause, than you have the right to have the bondsman come to the court and explain his or her actions. Ask your attorney for more information on how to get the bail agent into court.

If you find yourself in a position that you require advice from a bail bondsman please give us a call. You can reach one of our Professional, Licensed Bail Agents 24 hours a day at 866-743-8688.





TIPS ON CHOOSING A BAIL BOND COMPANY

No matter where you live if that state has private bail bonding company's, than I can assure you there are several.
We at All American Bail Bonds have been working in the bail industry for over a decade and in fact pushing 2 decades. We have seen so many company's come and go it 's actually quite humorous. These individuals get into the industry because it is a lucrative industry to work in; people can make a small fortune or they can lose big.
Because our industry is a cash business you will find not one not two but several shady organizations or individuals looking to make that Dollar.

God forbid, you ever find yourself in need of a bail bondsman but if you do this article is for you!

How to locate a credible bail bondsman? In todays digital age it seems like everyone looks to the internet or more specifically Google, MSN, or Yahoo. Now a days you can simply go to the search engine and simply put the key words "Bail Bonds" and you'll get a plethora of choices most of which will have a fancy website with bogus reviews and address locations that don't even exists.

Another option to find a credible bail bonding company is the phone book, but really who still uses the phone book for anything now a days?, believe it or not the phone book is a great place to find a credible company. The reason we have found that phone book still work is that the company's who have been in business the longest, which means they probably do the best business, still will advertise in the paper media knowing they can reach the largest audience in addition to the world wide web.

The following can be used for researching company's either online or in a phone book, most of the following more relates to searching online.

  1. When researching a company always check that the company has a valid insurance license in the state that you require their services. In California you want to go to the California department of Insurance, which can be located at  http://insurance.ca.gov/license-status/. Simply put in the name or license of the agent your checking and if there is in the system you'll get a hit. If you do get a valid hit check to make sure that the company has no negative history and if they do than you may want look into another company.
  2. Check on the company's address! This is a big problem with bonding company's advertising here in Los Angeles. Any city you type in you get a list of offices for companies who claim to operate in that city, but in fact there mostly bogus. Try it, go to Google and type in Palmdale Ca Bail Bonds (where All American Bail Bonds corporate office is located). Now take any company and go to the department of insurances web site and enter the company's license number, If their legitimate than they should have a license number listed on their website.
  3. Once you have found a company that you wish to use call them and begin to the ask the questions. Don't be afraid to ask the company that your calling all the questions you like, we work for you and if you don't feel comfortable with that company than it's time to call someone else.
  4. Once you have found the company you want use and you have agreed upon the payments and percentage rate than go to their local office and begin the paperwork. Here in California all the paperwork that you do has been approved by the Department of Insurance and much of it might feel unnecessary because of its redundancy but that's for your protection. We want to make sure that you have a complete understanding of what your signing. We never want to hear clients say that they didn't know what to expect or didn't understand.                                                                                                                                        Side Note: What is the legal percentage and how is it that some company offer less?  Will be answered in the next article.
  5. Once the paperwork is completed, the agent has done everything required by law and its surety, the agent will post the bond on the cleared inmate and await their release for further paperwork.
Now hopefully everything has gone the way its suppose to, you'll loved one should be out of jail with a future court date and everyone is happy. But what do you do if the bail agent doesn't perform to your expectations.

If you find yourself in a position where your unhappy with bail agent performance, whether it be that the agent mislead you or possibly revoked a bond without just cause, than you need to contact the Department of insurance in that state and lodge a formal complaint. I can tell you here in California we never want to here  a complaint from the Department and the mear threat alone maybe enough to get you the desired result.

If you find yourself in position that you require advice regarding a bad bail experience, we would love to help. Feel free to call one of our licensed professional bail agents at 866-743-8688.

In the early evening hours of Friday, December 30, 2011, and through the early morning hours of Saturday, December 31, 2011, 16 additional vehicle/structure fires occurred; four in Hollywood, 11 in North Hollywood, and one in Sunland. An additional car fire occurred in the City of Burbank.

On Saturday evening, December 31, 2011, 8 additional car/structure fires occurred; 6 in Hollywood and two in West Hollywood.

During the early morning hours of January 2, 2012, 11 additional car/structure fires occurred; two in West Hollywood, two in Hollywood, and seven in North Hollywood.

This string of fires has resulted in one fire fighter and one citizen injury; there have been no fatalities to date.

The Task Force has worked together around the clock and is currently reviewing more than 100 clues, mapping out the sequence of the fires that occurred, interviewing hundreds of witnesses, and canvassing the 53 fire scenes as part of this active investigation. Hundreds of investigators and uniform personnel from throughout the City and County of Los Angeles have been deployed to assist. Additionally, multiple search warrants have been authored and served as part of this investigation.

To date these fires have caused nearly 3 million dollars of damage to vehicles and structures.

On Monday, January 2, 2012, shortly after 3:00 a.m., a Los Angeles County Sheriff’s deputy assigned to West Hollywood Station stopped the driver of a van near Sunset Blvd. and Fairfax Ave in the City of Los Angeles. The van resembled a description provided by the Arson Task Force as possibly being related to the recent fires and the driver resembled the person of interest seen in a videotape released by the multi-agency Arson Task Force. The driver was detained and investigators with the Arson Task Force were notified. Subsequent to interviewing this individual, he was placed under arrest.
