They Claim They Are Trying to Help ...

But I don't find the claim very believable:

Bail increased for North Pond Hermit 

Authorities say it's for his own protection, citing a long-distance marriage proposal and a stranger who tried to post his bail.

Someone offered to pay his bail, so the state filed more charges against him (jumping his bail from $5,000 to $250,000).

And they did this after the guy refused the offer to bail him out at $5k.

"For his own protection." Yeah, right.
