JMHoo's link above (I link to his post, inside) seems to indicate he was
an asylum seeker (who indeed could have been refused entry under the COVID protocol per Title 42, which was still in effect then, but for some reason wasn't) and does not indicate he had exhausted all appeals or even had his hearing yet, which would be unsurprising for a 2022 entry. I can't actually find an answer as to where in the process he was, but I also don't see where you're getting the idea that he had had all his hearings and exhausted his appeals but was released instead of being deported.
