Somewhat unrelated question: Recently, there have been several hi-profile cases, like this, where the defendants have been held on multi-million dollar bonds.

Why is that? If ever a case screams REMAND this is it. So, why don't the prosecutors just ask for no bail?

I have no idea other than what the current charges are may require a bail option be available. I’m sure local, state and federals guidelines have instructions regarding bail but I have no idea what they are.
