Surely, the issue at stake is not about how long people should be detained for but WHY innocent people are being detained in the first place. What is it about the 50% of people that made someone think that they should be detained?

We would all seem to agree that if someone is guilty then that's fine, detain them until you get the evidence and then throw away the key. But why are innocent people being detained in the first place - or is it just that they are guilty but the police can't get enough evidence to keep them - one has to wonder?
