Shutterstock 29134423

There were two offenders convicted of crimes against persons released on parole in Blue Island during the fourth quarter, according to Illinois Department of Corrections data obtained by the South Cook News.

The data shows that both of the released offenders in Blue Island were men. The younger parolee was a 23-year-old man sentenced in 2018. The other was a 43-year-old man sentenced in 2015.

The offender who was incarcerated the longest was Dennis Q. Kaftan. He was convicted of a crime against a person in 2015 when he was 39 years old. He is now 43.

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 Q4 2018 who were convicted of crimes against persons.
