majority of the initial 742 detainees had been picked up, not by the US military, but by Afghans and Pakistanis for a bounty,

Gitmo is not a penal institution but a detention facility. This means it's a place to put people until a matter is sorted out, and if someone is turned in for a bounty in a war zone that's pretty decent reason to detain them.

BTW, there are innocent people -- U.S. citizens no less -- who are detained every year in jails in every county in this country.
