Let's say he (or anybody else) is found not guilty. You can just be kept in jail for years, waiting for the court date, even though you are innocent? How is it not ridiculous?

Someone can be arrested for a made up reason that the judge will throw out in 5 minutes, but they have to wait months/years for that to happen?

The defendant usually waives their right to a speedy trial in felony cases and asks for continuances pre trial, which his lawyers did in this federal case.
