The data shows that the four released offenders living in the Elgin zip code were men. Of the parolees, one is a veteran, and the median age was 39. The youngest parolee was a 33-year-old man convicted of a crime involving alcohol in 2018, and the oldest was a 21-year-old man convicted of homicide in 1995.
The offender who had been incarcerated the longest was Rudy Villareal. He was convicted of homicide in 1995, when he was 21 years old. He is now 45.
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.
