Because you can't keep someone locked up by state order for 21 days if they haven't committed a crime.

The Federal Government has rules for this. I don't see where Maine or New Jersey do. It's the Maine State Police going to enforce the quarantine.

Medical Quarantine laws require a "reasonable plan" and a medical emergency. NJ laws (and I imagine others) usually require a court order and for the quarantine to be the least restrictive necessary.

Since Christie didn't consult with any medical professional or have any solid plan in place he likely fails on all of these counts. Never mind that the nurse was asymptomatic and on her way to Maine when they began her detainment and therefore would not have been a risk to anyone in NJ.
