The data shows that 73 men and eight women were released in the Rockford zip code. Of the parolees, one is a veteran, and the median age was 35. The youngest parolee was a 19-year-old man convicted in 2017, and the oldest was a 67-year-old man convicted of a crime involving alcohol in 2018.
The offender who had been incarcerated the longest was Reginald Lockett. He was convicted of a property crime in 1993, when he was 33 years old. He is now 59.
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.
