Career

Leland worked for Da Kine Bail Bonds, his father’s bail bonds company. It was primarily a family business, with many of his family members participating and working there. He decided to go bounty hunting while working there, primarily to earn the prize money.

Mexican authorities apprehended him in September 2006. He was bounty hunting with his father, Duane, and Tim at the time, and had apprehended the fugitive in Puerto Vallarta. He was detained on the basis of “deprivation of liberty.” They were quickly released on bail, but extradition charges were filed, but Mexico abruptly dropped all charges. He never went back to Mexico.

He then co-founded “Chapbros Media,” a show-off website, with his brothers. He left the show in 2012 to start his own bail bond company “Kama’aina Bail Bonds” in Hawaii, where he also ran his father’s bail bond business and the bounty hunters after Duane moved to Florida.

He reappeared in “Dog and Beth: On the Hunt.” However, he rose to prominence with the A&E Network show “Dog the Bounty Hunter” and became a well-known showbiz figure in the United States. He moved to Alabama with his wife Jaime in 2015 and continues to run the bail bonds business.
