Joshua M. Schmidt, a 30 year old bondsman in Idaho, was killed, presumably by a client he had just bonded out of jail. According to this report on KTVB, Anthony Bosworth II was arrested on March 14 on a charge of domestic violence, and held on a total of $30,000 bond. Schmidt bonded him out of jail and Schmidt escorted Bosworth to two banks in an attempt to cash a personal check. Schmidt's body was found the next day and police believe he was killed in his truck by Bosworth and his body was later dumped. Bosworth's ex-wife flagged down a police officer saying Bosworth was at her apartment, covered in blood and waving a gun. She said he disposed of some clothing and left in a vehicle matching the description of Schmidt's truck. Bosworth was later located driving the truck. Bosworth fled on foot and opened fire on police officers. The police returned fire and Bosworth died on the scene.
Our condolences to the family of Joshua Schmidt.
