In these cases, as opposed to courts of 'common law', the judicial constraints / safeguards for the defendants are reduced or eliminated for the convenience of the monarch. To the King, it was for efficiency, to the subject, it was a threat!
In this panoply of 6 January cases, the Executive, Biden Administration, is withholding potentially exculpatory (innocence-refutation) facts from the defendants for the government's advantage. Rights of speedy trial and 'habeas corpus' become delayed as the defendants lack the information to dispute the prosecution's case. For precedent in Federal Prosecution of withholding exculpatory evidence, see Republican Senator Ted Stevens (Alaska)'s ugly case (2008) and others.

I believe these persons are being detained by the US Capitol Police. I do not believe their detention is under the authority of the Executive Branch.
We have really missed the pitch on these cases. There are a couple of things we need to know like - yesterday, such as: Does the Congress (the detaining authority) consider itself bound by Amendments 4, 5 and 6? Does the Congress recognize its prisoners as having the right to a Habeus Corpus petition to an Article III court? Who or what is the ultimate authority who has the power to release these prisoners?
I’m sure there are many other constitutional issues I’ve missed
The $64,000 dollar question, though, is why isn’t this the biggest news story in the history of the Republic?
no, just look up Weissman
