There were three offenders convicted of crimes against persons released on parole in Des Plaines during the first quarter, according to Illinois Department of Corrections data obtained by the North Cook News.

The data shows that three men were among the parolees. Of the parolees sentenced for crimes against persons, one is a veteran, and the median age is 32. The youngest parolee was a 22-year-old man sentenced in 2018, and the oldest was a 50-year-old man sentenced in 2015.

The offender who was incarcerated the longest was Randell M. Woolsey. He was convicted of a crime against a person in 2015 when he was 46 years old. He is now 50.

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.
