As the US Constitution grants, every person is innocent until proven guilty. Incarcerating a person for days, weeks, months, even a year or two, until his or her hearing is unlawful, which is why bail exists to protect and uphold this right of living free (though perhaps with some restrictions) until that hearing date.
Bail is a set amount of money the defendant must pay for their freedom. The amount of bail they must meet is determined by the severity of the crime and other factors. While bail can be very expensive, the 8th Amendment protects guarantees non-excessive bail.
