You never know what&rsquo;s going to happen,&rdquo; says AIA <b>bail bond agent<\/b> Fred Adkerson. For 42 years, he has written 70% of bail bonds across the state of Alaska and still has the names of people who owe him fees from the 1970&rsquo;s. <\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt\"><span style=\"line-height: 115%; font-size: 10pt\">With over four decades of experience, Adkerson has seen a lot of changes in the <b>bail bond industry<\/b>: more gang-related cases and increased <b>bail bond <\/b>amounts due to more heinous crimes being committed. <\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt\"><span style=\"line-height: 115%; font-size: 10pt\">Still, Adkerson&rsquo;s work gives people a second chance at life. He says, &ldquo;A lot of these guys are working. They have to get out and support their families. Some of these guys have five or six kids, and by being in jail, who&#8217;s going to pay the bills&hellip;and when they do get out, their job&#8217;s gone.&rdquo;<\/span><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 115%; font-size: 10pt\">Alaska is the only state that allows third-party custodian bail, but there is a bill going through the legislature that asks for stricter third-party custodian standards.
