They were not arrested in the United States by United States Federal Law.
They are not under Federal Law, and never have been by the US.
They were detained and are held under the Unified Code of Military Justice.
They have no bearing on the US Constitution or US Laws as they were not detained or arrested in the US or for breaking laws within the boundaries of the United States.
The REASON they shouldn't be charged or handled with the civilian criminal justice system is because they were never in the US and were never under US LAW.
They should be tried in a military court by people who understand the UCMJ. Admittedly though it should be cleaner and quicker.
