There were two offenders released on parole during the first quarter of 2020 that live in Gallatin County, according to Illinois Department of Corrections data obtained by SE Illinois News.

The data shows that man and woman were released in Gallatin County. The younger parolee was a 38-year-old man sentenced for a crime involving drugs in 2019. The other was a 41-year-old woman sentenced for a property crime in 2018.

The offender who had been incarcerated the longest was Deanna Wright. She was convicted of a property crime in 2018 when she was 38 years old. She is now 41.

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 gives a breakdown of how many offenders were paroled in the first quarter of 2020 in each Gallatin County municipality with at least one parolee in the quarter.
