How can the judge take away a defendant’s money? Doesn’t that deprive him of his right to counsel?

When the “judge” found out Zimmerman had $200K from donations, he upped the bond to $1 million. Zimmerman had to pay $100K non refundable to a bail bondsman, so that’s how the judge took away Zimmerman’s money. IMHO, the purpose was precisely to deny Zimmerman sufficient legal counsel.

By setting the bail at 1 million dollars. A bond has a 10% NONE REFUNDABLE fee.
