Dont do it for me yet please, tell me where i am going wrong, i need to learn this Also i get no error

function getPlayerFromPartOfName(playerPart) 
  local pl = getPlayerFromName(playerPart) 
  if isElement(pl) then 
    return pl 
  else 
    for i,v in ipairs (getElementsByType ("player")) do 
      if (string.find(getPlayerName(v),playerPart)) then 
        return v 
      end 
    end 
  end 
end 
  
function Jail (player, command, name) 
    if isObjectInACLGroup ( "user."..getAccountName(getPlayerAccount(player)), aclGetGroup ( "Admin" ) ) then 
    local thePlayer = getPlayerFromPartOfName(name) 
    if not thePlayer then return end 
    if getElementData( thePlayer, "isJailed") then outputChatBox("This player is already in jail.",player,255,0,0) return end 
   getElementModel ( thePlayer ) 
   setElementModel ( thePlayer, 4 ) 
   setElementPosition ( thePlayer, 52, 2483, 21 ) 
 takeAllWeapons ( getRootElement() )  
    setElementData ( thePlayer, "isJailed", true ) 
    outputChatBox (name.." has been jailed", getRootElement(), 255, 0, 0, true ) 
    else 
    outputChatBox ("You cannot use this command!", player, 255, 0, 0, true ) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler("jail",Jail) 
  
function Unjail (player, command, name) 
    if isObjectInACLGroup ( "user."..getAccountName(getPlayerAccount(player)), aclGetGroup ( "Admin" ) ) then 
    local thePlayer = getPlayerFromPartOfName(name) 
    if not thePlayer then return end 
    if not getElementData( thePlayer, "isJailed") then outputChatBox("This player is not in jail.",player,255,0,0) return end 
    setElementPosition ( thePlayer, 72, 2484, 16.3 ) 
    setElementData ( thePlayer, "isJailed", false ) 
    outputChatBox (name.." has been unjailed. Be good now, "..name, getRootElement(), 0, 255, 0, true ) 
    else 
    outputChatBox ("You cannot unjail yourself!", player, 255, 0, 0, true ) 
    end 
 end 
addCommandHandler("unjail",Unjail) 
  
ped1inside = createPed ( 71, 69, 2503, 17)                     
setElementFrozen (ped1inside, false )

You must save the skin before jail him, then load it.

function getPlayerFromPartOfName(playerPart) 
  local pl = getPlayerFromName(playerPart) 
  if isElement(pl) then 
    return pl 
  else 
    for i,v in ipairs (getElementsByType ("player")) do 
      if (string.find(getPlayerName(v),playerPart)) then 
        return v 
      end 
    end 
  end 
end 
  
function Jail (player, command, name) 
    if isObjectInACLGroup ( "user."..getAccountName(getPlayerAccount(player)), aclGetGroup ( "Admin" ) ) then 
    local thePlayer = getPlayerFromPartOfName(name) 
    if not thePlayer then return end 
    if getElementData( thePlayer, "isJailed") then outputChatBox("This player is already in jail.",player,255,0,0) return end 
    setElementData(thePlayer, "jailSkin", getElementModel ( thePlayer )) 
    setElementModel ( thePlayer, 4 ) 
    setElementPosition ( thePlayer, 52, 2483, 21 ) 
    takeAllWeapons ( getRootElement() ) 
    setElementData ( thePlayer, "isJailed", true ) 
    outputChatBox (name.." has been jailed", getRootElement(), 255, 0, 0, true ) 
    else 
    outputChatBox ("You cannot use this command!", player, 255, 0, 0, true ) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler("jail",Jail) 
  
function Unjail (player, command, name) 
    if isObjectInACLGroup ( "user."..getAccountName(getPlayerAccount(player)), aclGetGroup ( "Admin" ) ) then 
    local thePlayer = getPlayerFromPartOfName(name) 
    if not thePlayer then return end 
    if not getElementData( thePlayer, "isJailed") then outputChatBox("This player is not in jail.",player,255,0,0) return end 
    setElementPosition ( thePlayer, 72, 2484, 16.3 ) 
    setElementModel ( thePlayer, tonumber(getElementData(thePlayer,"jailSkin"))) 
    setElementData ( thePlayer, "isJailed", false ) 
    outputChatBox (name.." has been unjailed. Be good now, "..name, getRootElement(), 0, 255, 0, true ) 
    else 
    outputChatBox ("You cannot unjail yourself!", player, 255, 0, 0, true ) 
    end 
 end

ped1inside = createPed ( 71, 69, 2503, 17)                     
setElementFrozen (ped1inside, false ) 
setPedRotation (ped1inside, 180)

First of all, that getElementModel has no localed name, and you haven't stored the skin ID anywhere.

Functions and such:

Get and save the original

local skin = getElementModel(player) 
setElementData(player, "originalskin", skin) 

Put the original

local skin = getElementData(player, "originalskin") 
setElementModel(player, skin)
