Well, courts have the ability to enforce their orders (the most common being
failure to provide child support). It's an example of how one can be jailed
without committing a crime. Others include: Juveniles, mental health
candidates, communicable disease carriers, immigration violators, material
witnesses, and unlawful enemy combatants.

Point is, not everybody behind bars is a criminal or suspected criminal.
Heck, if you ASK those behind bars, you'll find very few who are actually
criminals.
