Shutterstock 29134423

There were two offenders convicted of drug crimes released on parole in Hanover Park during the first quarter, according to Illinois Department of Corrections data obtained by the DuPage Policy Journal.

The data shows that both of the released offenders in Hanover Park were men. The younger parolee was a 30-year-old man sentenced in 2016. The other was a 52-year-old man sentenced in 2013.

The offender who was incarcerated the longest was Juan Amezquita. He was convicted of a crime involving drugs in 2013 when he was 45 years old. He is now 52.

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.

The table below shows the 50 cities in Illinois with the most paroled offenders in Q1 2018 who were convicted of drug crimes.
