Anti cash bail groups and Officer Chauvin

It is all over the news that the Biden campaign is into this anti cash bail crusade just like the group in New Orleans that is doing the same thing.
So my question is this: Should we expect them to use their funding (celebrities and donors have given them $20 million) to bail out Officer Chauvin? Their premise is that no one should be detained pre-trial. That would seem to include him. His bail is $500,000.
If they are true to their stated cause, it would be a hell of a symbolic move to post his bail.

The staffers posted on Twitter that they contributed money to a group called the Minnesota Freedom Fund, which opposes the practice of making people who are arrested pay money to avoid pre-trial imprisonment, Reuters reported. Biden himself opposes cash bail, comparing it to a “modern day debtors prison,” campaign spokesman Andrew Bates told Reuters.

Chauvin is better off in jail right now. I think there’s a really good chance he and his family would be killed if he waited his trial from his own home.

I can’t believe he is still in the country. If I had been him, and knew what was coming, I would’ve hauled arse.
