The data shows that 11 men and one woman were released in the Peru zip code. Of the parolees, one is a veteran, and the median age was 42. The youngest parolee was a 24-year-old man convicted of a crime involving drugs in 2017, and the oldest was a 61-year-old man convicted of a crime involving one or more weapons in 2015.
The offender who had been incarcerated the longest was Willie Molina. He was convicted of a property crime in 2013, when he was 42 years old. He is now 48.
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.
