The data shows that 33 men and eight women were released in the Ottawa zip code. The median age of the parolees was 38. The youngest parolee was a 19-year-old man convicted of a crime against justice in 2018, and the oldest was a 36-year-old man convicted of homicide in 1996.
The offender who had been incarcerated the longest was Kevin Comer. He was convicted of homicide in 1996, when he was 36 years old. He is now 58.
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.
