I’m not sure whether the intention is to be nice to the potential deportees, or to avoid burdening the receiving country, but either way, it’s not intended to benefit the United States.
This particular amnesty was put on by the Obama Administration — see Obama’s Haitian Amnesty Kills. Remember Willie Horton? by Patrick Cleburne. Bush, or anyhow Michael Chertoff, had refused to do so.

The Dufrene case is the only death — sorry, the only three deaths — resulting from that that I know of, but there may be more.[Immigration authorities released man who went on to kill 3 in North Miami | In a year-old mystery, a felon freed after he could not be returned to Haiti killed three people. Was it random, or was he working with someone?, By David Ovalle, January 22, 2012]
It’s not just a matter of freeing 700 illegal Haitians, it’s 700 deportable Haitian convicts.
Definitely one for the "What could possibly go wrong?" file.
