Week ending July 7: 38 inmates sentenced in Cook County to be released from Illinois Department of Corrections

Police 03

There were 38 inmates sentenced to jail in Cook County that will be released from the custody of the Illinois Department of Corrections during the week ending July 7.

The inmate being released that served the longest time was Mike Wakeman for murder with the intent to kill or injure. Mike Wakeman spent more than 27 years incarcerated.

According to The Institute for Illinois’ Fiscal Sustainability, Illinois spends about $37,000 a year per incarcerated person. In a study by Prison Policy Initiative, Illinois’ incarceration rate was at 564 per 100,000, higher than every industrialized country, except the United States. When compared with its surrounding states, Illinois was the lowest. Kentucky and Missouri have rates over 850 per 100,000.

One of the issues is how pretrial detainees are now handled. The Vera Institute of Justice noted that pretrial detainees made up 71% of the total jail population.

Most prison inmates are released on some condition of supervised monitoring upon reentering civilian life. This monitoring can last from one year to the rest of someone’s life.
