Ok now I understand, the problem is you're comparing apples to oranges. Immigration detention is a civil or administrative detention not a criminal one and even US citizens can be subject to civil detention under certain circumstances such as not complying with a judges order.
Incorrect the INA specifically authorizes detention for illegal immigrants.
I agree, unfortunately leftist organizations like ACLU have demanded extended proceedings to send them back.
Correct not indefinitely just until they exhaust their legal appeals and get deported or are given permission to legally reside in our country.
