Police 03

There were eight offenders released on parole during 2018 that live in Cumberland County, according to Illinois Department of Corrections data obtained by East Central Reporter.

The data shows that seven men and one women were released in Cumberland County. The median age of the parolees was 43. The youngest parolee was a 34-year-old man convicted of a crime against a person in 2017, and the oldest was a 52-year-old man convicted of a crime involving alcohol in 2014.

The offender who had been incarcerated the longest was Carmelo M. Oquendo. He was convicted of a crime involving one or more weapons in 2014 when he was 39 years old. He is now 44.

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.
