Bail Bondsman Demands More Than Fee From Client

Bail bondsman, Curtis Jackson Maroney, was arrested by Lexington County Sheriff’s detectives for alledgely forcing a female client to perform sexual acts and do manual labor. These were alledged to have been a condition of the South Carolina's bail bondsman's efforts to post her bail bond. Mr. Maroney worked for Affordable Bonding, as a licensed S.C. bail bondsman.

According to law enforcement reports, the bail bondsman threatened to revoke the female client's bail if she did not comply with his orders of forced work and sexual acts. The woman's original charge was Driving Under the Influence. While the case is still under investigation, it is safe to say the charges of blackmail and extortion could land the bail bondsman behind bars for a very long time.

Bail Bondsman's Office Broken Into By Client?

Being a bail bondsman can be a thankless job. However, Rafael Phillip Lujan is suspected of really making it thankless by allegedly breaking into the office of the bondsman's who bailed him out for a warrant for failure to appear in court for harassment.. After posting a bond for Mr. Lujan, he was at the Blackwell Bail Bonds office filling out paperwork.

Later that day, the bail bonds office was broken into. Police officers found Mr. Luzan in a store nearby with several two dollar bills. Apparently, Blackwell Bail Bonds had a two dollar bill mint sheet stolen during the break in.

After being arrested for the break in and theft, Mr. Lujan will undoubtedly being looking for a bail bondsman to bail him out. However, with a charge of burglary in a bail bondsman office, it may be tough to find sympathetic and willing bondsmen.
