Police 07

There were five offenders released on parole during the first quarter that live in Jersey County, according to Illinois Department of Corrections data obtained by Metro East Sun.

The data shows that three men and two women were released in Jersey County. The median age of the parolees was 34. The youngest parolee was a 26-year-old woman sentenced for a property crime in 2017, and the oldest was a 45-year-old man sentenced for a financial crime or fraud in 2017.

The offender who had been incarcerated the longest was Ciara R. Young. She was convicted of a property crime in 2017 when she was 24 years old. She is now 26.

Under state law, paroled offenders are still in legal custody of the IDOC, meaning they can be taken back to a correctional center at any time if the state has probable cause or a warrant.
