Bail Bonds

Bail Bonds in Grand Theft Auto V are a series of missions classified as Hobbies & Pastimes, although they're triggered as a Strangers & Freaks mission.

These are four bounty missions given by Maude Eccles to Trevor Philips, which require finding and capturing targets, and bringing them back to Maude, alive.

After speaking with Maude in her shack in Sandy Shores, she will occasionally email Trevor during gameplay, sending a picture of the general locations of the targets. It's then up to you to try and find the specific location on the map (which you can see below in this article).

To capture a target alive, you can shoot them in their limbs to injure them, or you can use the Stun Gun to knock them down. Once knocked down or injured, approach the fugitive and they will surrender, and follow to your vehicle.

Capturing a target alive will reward you with $10,000, while killing the fugitive will only give you a reward of $5,000.

All four Bail Bonds missions are optional endeavors, not required for 100% Completion of the game. However, completing a Bail Bond mission with the target alive will unlock the achievement / trophy "Wanted: Alive or Alive".
