Why can’t orphans go to jail? Because they aren’t wanted.

Alright, listen up, you big dummy! This joke is playing with the word "wanted," see? When the police want someone, they're "wanted" for a crime. But "wanted" also means desired or cared for. So, the joke says orphans can't go to jail because they're not *wanted* by anyone, implying they're unloved, and therefore not "wanted" by the cops either. Get it? You probably need a snack, you're looking a little confused.
