Book Description
Excerpt from Illinois Parole Law: Accomplishments, Statistical Data, Papers and Addresses on Its Provisions and Its Administration; After Care of Prisoners Released on Parole, Crime Survey Note: The following is the biennial report of the Superintendent of the Division of Par dons and Paroles of the Department of Public Welfare of the State of Illinois, from September 30, 1918, to September 30, 1920. War and the reconstruction period produced crime waves throughout the country without parallel. All large cities, from the Atlantic to the Pacific and from the north to the south, have suffered during the past two years as never before from the commission of major crimes. With crime waves everywhere it does not seem possible that the administration of the parole law in Illinois could go forward - winning. Commendation from crime commissions, judges, prosecuting attorneys and police departments - and yet that is the record of accomplishment by the present Division of Pardons and Paroles during the two year biennium from September 30, 1918, to September 30, 1920. In brief the Division of Pardons and Paroles calls attention to some of the more important accomplishments during the two years, as follows: In after care and supervision of its prisoners upon parole Illinois has taken front rank, during the past two years, among the various states hav ing parole laws. Every person sent to a penal institution, except the life termer - and he is a small per cent of the total - 1nust come out some day, either upon parole after serving a portion of his sentence or by discharge after the sentence is served in full. That being so the present Division of Pardons and Paroles has made a drive to release prisoners under the best possible conditions, securing the best job obtainable at the best possible wage, and keeping in daily touch with the prisoner through a thoroughly trained, organized and systematized parole department. Result - Seven per cent of the total number paroled out of the Joliet penitentiary were returned during the two year biennium, September 30, 1918, to September 30, 1920, for parole violations, as against fifteen per cent returned to the same institution during the twenty-three years preceding this biennium.
