The data shows that 18 men and seven women were released in the West Frankfort zip code. Of the parolees, one is a veteran, and the median age was 39. The youngest parolee was a 22-year-old woman convicted of a financial crime or fraud in 2017, and the oldest was a 62-year-old man convicted of a crime involving alcohol in 2016.
The offender who had been incarcerated the longest was Russell Kelley. He was convicted of a crime against a person in 2008, when he was 44 years old. He is now 55.
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.
