The data shows that three men and one woman were released in the Springfield zip code. The median age of the parolees was 27. The youngest parolee was a 22-year-old man convicted of a crime involving drugs in 2018, and the oldest was a 30-year-old man convicted of a crime involving alcohol in 2017.
The offender who had been incarcerated the longest was Christopher Behl. He was convicted of a crime involving drugs in 2013, when he was 24 years old. He is now 31.
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.
