Police 06

There were seven offenders released on parole during the third quarter of 2019 that live in Clark County, according to Illinois Department of Corrections data obtained by East Central Reporter.

The data shows that five men and two women were released in Clark County. The median age of the parolees was 37. The youngest parolee was a 20-year-old man sentenced for a property crime in 2018, and the oldest was a 50-year-old man sentenced for a financial crime or fraud in 2019.

The offender who had been incarcerated the longest was Joshua J. Cooley. He was convicted of a crime involving alcohol in 1979 when he was -1 years old. He is now 40.

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.

The table below gives a breakdown of how many offenders were paroled in the third quarter of 2019 in each Clark County municipality with at least one parolee in the quarter.
