The data shows that 26 men and two women were released in the Carbondale zip code. The median age of the parolees was 39. 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 41-year-old man convicted of homicide in 1989.

The offender who had been incarcerated the longest was Larry Parker. He was convicted of homicide in 1989, when he was 41 years old. He is now 71.

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.
