Since he got FEDERAL time I'd bet that they were holding him by provisions in that new LAW regarding sexual crimes where they don't release people after their sentence is up...

Supreme Court: Sex Offenders Can be Held After Prison Term Ends
News by Mark Berman
The U.S. Supreme Court ruled Monday that some sex offenders can be held indefinitely in prison after their terms are up. In a 7-2 vote, the Court said inmates who are determined to be "sexually dangerous" could be held even after they finish their sentences.
In 2006, then-President Bush signed the Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act, which authorized the civil commitment of sexually dangerous federal inmates.
Speaking for the majority, Justice Stephen Breyer wrote:
"The statute is a 'necessary and proper' means of exercising the federal authority that permits Congress to create federal criminal laws, to punish their violation, to imprison violators, to provide appropriately for those imprisoned and to maintain the security of those who are not imprisoned by who may be affected by the federal imprisonment of others."
However, Justice Clarence Thomas, who along with Justice Antonin Scalia, dissented, writing that nothing in the Constitution "expressly delegates to Congress the power to enact a civil commitment regime for sexually dangerous persons, nor does any other provision in the Constitution vest Congress or the other branches of the federal government with such a power."
The law was challenged by four inmates who were convicted of sex offenses, then denied release from prison after they served their time because officials determined they were likely to commit similar crimes again.
You see, there is still a double standard in the U.S. While men have been getting cut for ages, even in the U.S., the idea of cutting on women like Todd was convicted of contracting to do on juvenile females is still a social taboo in Western society unless there is a what may be considered a legitimate medical justification.
Probably those pictures of Todd's so-called female 'slave' taken before, during and after he 'modified' her and he posted on the Internet made it into the case against him.
This law applies when juvenile males are involved as well. I would bet that they will apply it to many, many sexual offenses, regardless or the age or sex of the victim.
