Doesn't make him any less accountable for all the stupid actions he made against the people. It's not like handing over those responsibilities also warranted him no further obligations against the justice system nor the people who he committed these crimes against. Also, it's nearing the end but we're seeing glimpses of him being behind bars, all those stupid shit he's been committing while on trial (the request for drugs so he can "behave better", the leaks of his conversations that revealed his "altruistic lifestyle" was nothing but a front to the press. And the judges being very indignant about putting him behind bars despite his "altruistic actions" like providing money for charity lol).
yes he stole lots of funds but technically he has not risked life or limb of his victims so he is not "of harm to the community" to be jailed/restrained from public... though he is on tag with curfew and told to stay at residence during trial. so not completely free
the judge cannot put him behind bars(prison) until trial judgement= takes time, be patient
the judge cant also deny him certain rights (time to speak with lawyers, gather defense, get medication, eat) else that can cause things like a mistrial.
they are doing things by the book to ensure there are no ways to drop the trial, so that the trial goes through the full process..
we waited nearly a year for the trial... a few more weeks isnt gonna hurt
