There were 79 offenders released on parole during 2018 that live near Illinois zip code 62959, according to Illinois Department of Corrections data obtained by Carbondale Reporter.

The data shows that 71 men and eight women were released in the Marion zip code. Of the parolees, one is a veteran, and the median age was 38. The youngest parolee was a 21-year-old man convicted of a crime involving one or more weapons in 2017, and the oldest was a 60-year-old man convicted of a crime involving alcohol in 2017.

The offender who had been incarcerated the longest was Kenneth Gravatt. He was convicted of a property crime in 1990, when he was 26 years old. He is now 55.

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.
