The data shows a man and a woman were among the parolees. The median age of the parolees sentenced for homicide was 35. The younger parolee was a 24-year-old man sentenced in 2019, and the oldest was a 46-year-old woman sentenced in 2004.
The offender who had been incarcerated the longest was Jahneria P. Singletary. She was convicted in 2004 when she was 27 years old. She is now 46.
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.
