“My client would rather surrender to pretrial detainment than subject these suretors to what will inevitably come,” Murray said.
Translation, he's far more scared of what his benefactor's might do after being publicly identified than anything that might happen in court.

He knows he's fucked regardless, a few more days in jail will not deter him.

George Santos' lawyer was part of the January 6 mob
Joseph Murray and an associate, currently listed as a Santos staffer, were in the crowd that surrounded the Capitol.

Rep. George Santos, Republican of New York, filed an 8-page appeal Friday seeking to keep sealed the names of those who helped him make the $500,000 bond in his federal criminal fraud case.
Submitting the filing just before the noon deadline, Santos' lawyers argue that the people who helped him post the bond would likely have to withdraw from serving as his bond supporters if their names are released. This, Santos says, could force him into pre-trial detention or impose upon him onerous release conditions.
The court filing includes a passage stating that Santos "has essentially publicly revealed that the suretors are family members and not lobbyists, donors or others seeking to exert influence over the Defendant."
Santos's next court appearance is scheduled for June 30, but the judge could rule on whether to release the unsealed records at any time.
The federal judge in New York granted a request from media organizations to make public the identities of three people who signed the bond for Santos' release after his indictment, but said their names should remain hidden for now to allow him to appeal. The consortium of media organizations sought the unsealing of the records, citing First Amendment and common law rights of access to the information.
Court filings show that the House Ethics Committee, which is investigating Santos, has also requested the identities of the individuals who helped him make bond. Santos' legal team has not provided the records of who helped assure his bond to the Ethics Committee.

Since it is fairly clear there is no law requiring those names to remain private, they should become public. If, as he claims, it is family members that are helping post bond then no one would care anyway. What is far more likely is that those family members have received money from him in the past and that this is the great circle of money laundering where every family member grifts and scratches each other's backs.Rep.

But, either way, we won't know until the names are released. Release them.

I would expect that there's a bit of financial document juggling going on with the family right now. The 'real bond sureties' will remain private, and will document that they supplied the funds to the family members as gifts or payments for some spurious activity.
The 7 or 8 family members will then say with a united voice, "Yes, we pulled all our savings and got a second mortgage, all to help poor George."
The problem with all that is that an eagle eyed attorney or journo will dig in, find one loose end, and pull the flim flam to pieces.
