February: 7 inmates sentenced in Boone County to be released from jail

Webp 8edited

There are seven inmates sentenced in Boone County set to be released from jail in February, according to the Illinois Department of Corrections.

Pedro L. Sanchez, who served the longest sentence among them, spent more than 13 years incarcerated for aggravated battery with a firearm.

According to the Illinois Department of Corrections, Illinois spends about $45,828 a year per incarcerated person. In a 2023 study by the Prison Policy Initiative, the state's incarceration rate was at 433 per 100,000, higher than every industrialized country, except the United States. When compared with its surrounding states, Illinois was the lowest. Kentucky and Missouri have rates over 700 per 100,000.

One of the reasons behind jail growth is how pretrial detainees are handled. Another study by the Prison Policy Initiative noted that the number of unconvicted individuals was more than two times higher than convicted individuals.

Most prison inmates are released on some condition of supervised monitoring upon reentering civilian life. This monitoring can last from one year to the rest of someone’s life.
