        Well, protective custody and detention are technically different, as I learned in my extensive American legal education at the University of Law & Order, but maybe it's being called a detention so she can, for her own protection, be allowed to be seen as unwilling. *dun-DUN*

        Maybe I'm stupid, but why would a "material witness" need to be put in jail? Is this some sort of statute or standard operating procedure?

        "Federal law allows judges to order witnesses to be detained if the government can prove that their testimony has extraordinary value for a criminal case and that they would be a flight risk and unlikely to respond to a subpoena." Story

        A material witness so it's probably for her safety or to make sure her testimony is truthful. I remember material witnesses being in a non disclose locations because of how sensitive & dangerous some cases are.
