That's not really an answer. Many people are held without bond. The answer is he's from a well off family so he has good lawyers.

People held without bond are in that situation for (presumably) extraordinary circumstances. Long history of violent behavior, huge flight risk.

This is a punk (he is a prick) who wouldn't know how to wield a butter knife. He agreed not to have an extradition hearing in the Bahamas. He's hardly a danger to others or a flight risk.
