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

The data shows that two men and two women were released in Jasper County. The median age of the parolees was 39. The youngest parolee was a 27-year-old woman sentenced for a crime involving drugs in 2018, and the oldest was a 48-year-old man sentenced for a crime involving drugs in 2018.

The offender who had been incarcerated the longest was George T. Grove. He was convicted in 2017 when he was 40 years old. He is now 42.

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 Jasper County municipality with at least one parolee in the quarter.
