Police 05

There were two offenders convicted of crimes involving alcohol released on parole in Peru during 2018, according to Illinois Department of Corrections data obtained by the Illinois Valley Times.

The data shows that both of the released offenders in Peru were men. Of these parolees, one is a veteran. The younger parolee was a 49-year-old man sentenced in 2017. The other was a 58-year-old man sentenced in 2018.

The offender who was incarcerated the longest was Anthony W. Perez. He was convicted of a crime involving alcohol in 2017 when he was 47 years old. He is now 49.

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.
