The data shows that the 20 released offenders living in the Steger zip code were men. The median age of the parolees was 40. The youngest parolee was a 19-year-old man convicted of a crime involving one or more weapons in 2017, and the oldest was a 60-year-old man convicted of a financial crime or fraud in 2017.
The offender who had been incarcerated the longest was Donald Williams. He was convicted of a crime against a person in 2009, when he was 26 years old. He is now 36.
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.
