What does it mean to be "assigned male at birth"? You are either born male or you are not, no?
It means you were assigned based on your external genitalia rather than the gender you "really" are inside.

I put really in the scare quotes because if gender is a social construct rather a bit of physical anatomy, then no one is "really" a particular gender.

appears to have been wrongfully arrested, to boot.

People who are wrongfully arrested usually don't have bail set at $75,000, then increased to $100,000.  The police don't set bail.  A judge does.
Judges also generally assume at bail hearings that the police are telling the truth. Most people can't afford a Perry Mason to defend them at a trial, let alone pre-trial hearings.
