Illinois Department of Corrections set to release 14 inmates sentenced in Winnebago County during February

Webp 14edited

There are 14 inmates sentenced in Winnebago County set to be released from jail in February, according to the Illinois Department of Corrections.

James E. Taylor, who served the longest sentence among them, spent more than 11 years incarcerated for armed habitual criminal.

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.
