Why Sex Crime Bail Bonds Require a Specialist
Standard bail agents are not equipped for these cases. The bail amounts are large, the conditions are complex, and the cosigner scrutiny is intense. Chad has spent years building the expertise to get these bonds written.

Cosigner Requirements for High-Bail Sex Crime Cases
Sex crime bonds require a strong cosigner package. The higher the bail, the more documentation Chad will need. Here is what to expect.
- Valid government-issued photo ID
- Proof of California residency (utility bill, lease, or mortgage statement)
- Proof of income or employment (pay stubs, tax returns, or bank statements)
- For bonds over $100,000: real property equity documentation or vehicle titles
- Willingness to ensure the defendant appears at all court dates
- Understanding that the premium is earned and non-refundable once the defendant is released
Non-citizens can cosign. Chad will ask direct questions and structure the bond accordingly. Honesty is the only requirement.
Chad's Real-World Experience
The DA Bail Escalation Tactic — And Why It Matters
Sex crime cases carry something most bail agents won't tell you about: prosecutors sometimes use bail as a pressure tool. Chad has seen it happen more than once — a defendant posts a $200,000 bond, then additional interviews with the accuser produce new charges, a re-arrest, and a bond increase to $600,000. The family scrapes together everything they have. Then it happens again — more counts, more charges, bond raised past a million dollars.
This is not a conspiracy theory. It is a documented DA strategy in high-profile sex crime cases. The family ends up trapped, unable to post the escalating bond, with the defendant sitting in custody while the case is built around them.
Chad's Credit Policy on Bond Increases
If your bond is increased on the same case in the same county, you do not pay the full premium on the new amount. Chad credits what you have already paid toward the increase. If your bond goes from $500,000 to $1,000,000, you only pay the premium on the additional $500,000 — not on the full million. Every time. No exceptions.
This is not standard industry practice. Most bondsmen treat a re-arrest as a brand new bond and charge accordingly. Chad does not. He believes the family has already been through enough.
I believe you should always have the right to bail. That right should never be taken away — and it should never be weaponized against a family that is already fighting for their loved one.

A Word From Chad — Why I Do This
These bonds are usually large. I end up talking to a lot of different family members — mothers, fathers, wives, husbands, sisters, brothers. High bonds. And one of the things I've really noticed is that the cosigners and the family struggle with something deeper than the money.
Should I cosign for him — for this type of thing? It's so looked down on in society. The thought of even helping somebody if they did something like this. People really struggle with that. Sometimes it makes them sit back, take longer, dread going through the paperwork. It's a very, very sad deal.
That part I truly understand. I've talked a lot about the hard things I've been through building this business. Fighting for people every day — seeing so much negativity, so much horrible stuff that people go through and do to their lives — it wears on you. So in a sense, I truly understand how these family members feel. And I think that's one of the reasons they're pretty comfortable with me. I don't judge.
Of all the crimes I can bond people out for — I have to say that for sex crime cases, I'm in this for the cosigner. If you could see what these families are going through when it comes to this crime, it's hard. There's just no other more horrifying thing for these cosigners. That's got to be the closest to my heart.
As for the defendant — honestly, I don't really think about them. I think about the cosigners. And I think about the Constitution. The right not to be handcuffed, thrown in a jail with no windows, no lights, no way out, not knowing when you'll ever get out — that can't happen under our Constitution. That's why I believe in this process.
There are a lot of people who uphold this process — judges, court staff, bailiffs, police, criminal defense attorneys, investigators, specialists. And the bondsman. Honestly, sometimes I think we're more important than the attorney. Don't tell them I said that. But that's why I do it. Those are my words.
I'm in this for the cosigner. If you could see what these families are going through — that's got to be the closest to my heart.
