A former U.S. Postal Service (USPS) employee was recently sentenced to prison after she and two co-conspirators stole checks worth over $24 million, according to the Department of Justice.
Dena J. King, the U.S. Attorney for the Western District of North Carolina, announced the sentencing in a press release on Feb. 7. Last week, Charlotte residents Nakedra Shannon, 30, and Desiray Carter, 30, were sentenced to 60 months and 54 months in prison for the crimes, respectively.
Officials say that Shannon, who was employed by the USPS from March 2021 to July 2023, stole incoming and outgoing checks while working as a mail processing clerk at a distribution center in Charlotte.
According to the press release, Shannon admitted to stealing the checks on the job from April to July 2023. Her co-conspirators included Carter and Donell Gardner, who was sentenced to 54 months in prison and three years of supervised release in 2023.
