Possible missing sense: in (legal, police) difficulties?
Someone requested it at WT:REE:


 * from "in a jam" (see &sect;I 2018) according to https://idioms.thefreedictionary.com/jammed+up. 2004 definition which states that it's about legal or police problems: https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=jammed%20up.
