If imperioum has made a mistake a sent a man that was released back to some other level, how does that tell prisoners that all released inmates are just being sent to another prison?

It took me a second watchthrough to fully grasp what was happening, but you're spot on.

Guy was supposed to get out, they just upped his sentence and moved him.

And even if it was a one-off bureaucratic mistake unique to that one guy (I don't think it was), it doesn't even matter because the perception that prisoners on his level would have is that he's proof nobody is getting out. Then those prisoners all being killed, even still assuming the original re-imprisoning is just a paperwork mistake, means that every other prisoner who hears about it only thinks it's conspiracy.
