Q1 2018 Parolees Recap: Who was paroled in Montgomery County?

Police 06

There were seven offenders released on parole during the first quarter that live in Montgomery County, according to Illinois Department of Corrections data obtained by South Central Reporter.

The data shows that five men and two women were released in Montgomery County. The median age of the parolees was 37. The youngest parolee was a 28-year-old man sentenced for a crime against justice in 2016, and the oldest was a 49-year-old man sentenced for a crime against a person in 2015.

The offender who had been incarcerated the longest was Meredith D. Henry II. He was convicted of a crime involving drugs in 2014 when he was 31 years old. He is now 36.

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 first quarter in each Montgomery County municipality.
