Parolees Recap: Who was paroled in Illinois ZIP Code 60450 during Q1?

In the first quarter of 2025, four offenders were released on parole and now reside in Illinois ZIP Code 60450, according to the Illinois Department of Corrections.

According to the USPS, Morris is the primary area with addresses in ZIP Code 60450.

Of the parolees, three were men and one was a woman, with a median age of 34. The youngest parolee was a 25-year-old male convicted of a crime against a person in 2023, and the oldest was a 52-year-old male convicted of a crime involving drugs in 2025.

The offender incarcerated the longest was Jennifer L. Miller. She was convicted of a crime involving drugs in 2022, when she was 39 years old. She is now 41.

Commonly referred to as parole in Illinois, Mandatory Supervised Release (MSR) is a post-prison supervision period, in which individuals must follow specific rules like check-ins with parole officers; violations can lead to reincarceration. Unlike parole, MSR is automatically required for all individuals released after serving a prison sentence.

In 2023, Gov. JB Pritzker signed a bill to reform Illinois’ Mandatory Supervised Release program. The law aims to reduce recidivism and reportedly create a more effective and equitable supervision system by incentivizing education, streamlining the review process, and expanding virtual check-ins.

“Our current supervision system too often operates unfairly, with rules that make it simply a revolving door back to jail,” Pritzker said at a bill signing ceremony in Chicago. “In fact, more than 25% of people who are released from prison in Illinois end up back behind bars, not because they’re recidivists, but instead for a noncriminal technical violation.”

A 2018 report from the Illinois Sentencing Policy Advisory Council indicated that 43% of released prisoners in Illinois return to prison within three years, costing taxpayers an estimated $152,000 per recidivism event.
