I am saying he’s not guilty of any crimes yet (though he likely will be soon).
Beyond reasonable restrictions to his behavior (monitoring to make sure he isn’t actively committing further crimes), he does have the right to live a normal life. That’s why we have trials and sentence people after the conviction (in other words, the punishment doesn’t even start until we decide it’s fair, that’s a cornerstone of our system).
You are implying that he is avoiding a punishment, which he is not.
You can argue in general cash bail creates bad incentives and is inherently unfair (I agree), but that’s a separate argument and is best discussed relative to all cases not just this one.
