here's an article from the AP: What to know after judge keeps Kilmar Abrego Garcia in jail over deportation fears

If things went as planned, Abrego Garcia would be staying with his brother in Maryland while court proceedings continue. But he’s still locked up over fears that U.S. immigration officials will try to deport him again.

A federal judge in Tennessee agreed Monday to keep Abrego Garcia behind bars at the request of his own attorneys. They had raised concerns over what they say were “contradictory statements” by the Trump administration over plans to remove Abrego Garcia from the country.

"at the request of his own attorneys" is the key thing here. he is eligible to be released pending the trial, but he is requesting to stay in jail because of fears that the gestapo will kidnap him again if he's released.

KAG asks to remain detained by the US Marshalls for fear of being kidnapped and disappeared again by ~~the Trump Gestapo~~ICE. Based on the premise that people want to be free, this shows how much KAG fears them.
