Shutterstock 184329281

There were seven offenders convicted of crimes against persons released on parole in Peoria during the second quarter, according to Illinois Department of Corrections data obtained by the Peoria Standard.

The data shows that six men and one woman were among the parolees. The median age of the parolees sentenced for crimes against persons was 37. The youngest parolee was a 26-year-old man sentenced in 2015, and the oldest was a 51-year-old man sentenced in 2018.

The offender who was incarcerated the longest was Ramon Portillo Jr. He was convicted of a crime against a person in 2006 when he was 33 years old. He 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.
