arrestees
People hauled in
Arrestees are people who have been arrested.
The term appears primarily in legal, law enforcement, and research contexts: The study compared arrestees' recidivism rates over five years.
It's a bureaucratic-sounding word that treats the arrested as a category rather than as individuals.
