- Additional Crew
Jimmy Fagrell was born in the San Francisco bay area on August 28, 1967
and raised in the San Joaquin Valley of California. The regions strong
western influence cultivated an interest in livestock and rodeo. At age
15 Jimmy signed up his first official rodeo, entering the bull and
bareback riding, and from that point forward the need for the thrill
and adrenaline took over. Although never obtaining much success, for
the next few years he entered what rodeos he could and attended most
all just to be emerged in the excitement and culture.
At age 22 Jimmy landed a job as a repo man and for the next several years this satisfied his needs that rodeo once did. In 1996 Jimmy was introduced to world-renowned bounty hunter Dan Cuellar and took a class he was offering. This opened doors very rapidly in the bail bonds industry. Bounty hunting came almost natural to Jimmy, he had found his calling. Jimmy was enjoying his newfound success and was one of central California most desired investigators, working for the top bail agencies in California. In 1999 He was offered a position as a bail agent for the mega bail bond agency, Aladdin Bail Bonds. He enjoyed his new position getting folks out of jail. For the next 8 years he learned that bail business form that inside out and worked his way up the corporate ladder becoming an Executive Vice President of California Operations.
In 2007, Jimmy left Aladdin to focus on other projects such as Bankers Choice Recovery Service, a repossession agency that he started in 2005, and by 2007 was doing $1,00,0000 per year. The first part of 2008 was great, then the rescission hit the repo business full swing. No cars were being sold, hence no car were being repossessed. Jimmy decided do supplement the business with what he knew best, Bounty Hunting! This worked and he was able to save his repo business. With a manager running Bankers Choice Jimmy formed California Mediation Service (CMS), and along with his bounty hunting partner Joey Garner hit the road full time recovering wanted fugitives.
In May of 2013 Jimmy sold his repossession business and moved to the beach on the beautiful coast of central California leaving most the field investigations up to Joey Garner and other contractors. Now semi-retired he is enjoying a slower life, and spending time with friends and family especially his teenage son Matthew.
Jimmy is a California licensed private investigator working cases around the central coast while administering the cases for CMS. He is excited about this new chapter in his life as a Consulting Producer on his first film related project 'Under The Radar' and is excited for the newly presented opportunities in Hollywood.
