Sounds like somebody needs their ass behind bars, then.
We don’t do debtors prisons. They’ll start seizing and auctioning properties.
Bail is something you post to keep you out of jail you're already going to, it's not debtor's prison. And we do it all the time; when people can't post bail, they continue on to jail.
In this case the bond is because he's appealing a civil judgement that's been reached. This is different from a bail bond. He's not at risk of jail over this unless he gets in contempt of court.
Which should have happened several times over.
