There were two offenders released on parole during 2018 that live near Illinois zip code 61024, according to Illinois Department of Corrections data obtained by Rockford Sun.

The data shows that both of the released offenders in the Durand zip code were men. The younger parolee was a 43-year-old man convicted of a crime against a person in 2016, and the other was a 49-year-old man convicted of a sex crime in 2015.

The offender who had been incarcerated the longest was Jeffrey Welsh. He was convicted of a sex crime in 2015, when he was 49 years old. He is now 53.

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.
