    Leonard Padilla is known as America's "Godfather of Bail". Over the last 30 years this professional bounty hunter has captured 4,000 fugitives on the run, caring little what he has to do to get the job done. Whether it's posing as a welfare agent or spinning fiendishly complex webs to snare his target, Padilla always gets his man. Aided by apprentice Rob Dick, and motivated by the fact his son runs the bail company he works for, this vigilante has America's big money fugitives squarely in his sights. Val Kilmer narrates as Leonard tracks down four fugitives over the space of two years in this rare glimpse inside the world of bounty hunters.
