Police 06

There were 16 offenders released on parole during the third quarter that live in Knox County, according to Illinois Department of Corrections data obtained by Galesburg Reporter.

The data shows that 13 men and three women were released in Knox County. The median age of the parolees was 33. The youngest parolee was a 19-year-old man sentenced for a property crime in 2018, and the oldest was a 47-year-old man sentenced for a crime involving one or more weapons in 2017.

The offender who had been incarcerated the longest was Juan Cordova Jr. He was convicted of a property crime in 2011 when he was 27 years old. He is now 35.

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.
