CHARLOTTE, N.C. – A U.S. Postal Service employee and two co-conspirators have been arrested on federal charges for a scheme involving stolen checks worth over $24 million, announced Dena J. King, U.S. Attorney for the Western District of North Carolina. The federal indictment was unsealed following the defendants’ initial court appearances.
Nakedra Shannon, 29, Donnell Gardner, 27, and Desiray Carter, 24, all of Charlotte, are charged with one count of conspiracy to commit financial institution fraud and five counts of theft of government property. Carter and Gardner are also charged with seven counts of possession of stolen mail matter, and Shannon is charged with eight counts of theft of mail by a postal employee.
According to allegations in the indictment, from March 2021 to July 2023, Shannon was employed by the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) as a mail processing clerk at a USPS processing and distribution center in Charlotte. From April to July 2023, Shannon conspired with Gardner and Carter to steal incoming and outgoing checks from the U.S. mail, which Gardner and Carter then sold to other individuals including using the Telegram channel OG Glass House.

If a local Post Office needed to hire 10 people, they did not hire the 10 highest scores.
They separated the tests by race, and then ranked them.
If all ten of the top scores were by white or Asian applicants, they chose the two or three Black and Hispanic candidates who scored highest in their own racial group.
There have been have several lawsuits to end race norming.
I do not know if race norming policy is still in force.
Does anyone know how these people get the checks cashed?
I need to show ID and proof of account before my bank will cash a check.
2 years to go from new hires to criminal masterminds. The USPS should hire them to develop new security protocols.
If there was check washing going on, that would make it easier.
Social Security checks are easy to identify from the outside (envelope). This theft from mailboxes used to be common in Miami after the “Mariel-boatlift”.
“The check is in the mail!”
This is the third check theft ring I have read about in the last few months all involving a black postal employee selling checks to black fences.
Rac
That sounds like trouble for Godzilla.
“Did they mess with people’s BALLOTS also?”
Of course!! THAT’S where they test drove the con
“...and more than $8 million in stolen U.S. Treasury checks...”
So, the perps weren’t charged until it became obvious that they stole from the wrong guys????
$24 million? When did the perps think it would be time to cut and run with the $$? I would’ve split for Tahiti or Bora Bora with a cool $2-3 million, myself.
Their theft probably went on so long because cuck authorities were at first turning a blind eye to it for fear of being called “racists”.
SS does not send checks in the mail anymore - Direct Deposit or Direct Express only, with very few exceptions.
“If a local Post Office needed to hire 10 people, they did not hire the 10 highest scores.”
Happened to me in 70. I got out of the Navy and applied for a job in the U.S. Courthouse in Nashville. I aced the test, had 5 points veteran’s preference and they hired two Mexicans that could barely speak English.
I took the civil exam for the USPS back in the day. Blacks and vets got something like 10 points added to their score. I got a 99 and ended up at the bottom of the list for hiring. About a year after I took the test, I received a letter from the USPS stating I could be hired if I agreed to move...to El Paso TX. There was no way I was moving to El Paso. Too far away from all the family and my hubby would have had to give up his job, which he made decent money and had great benefits. Not much of a choice.
LOL. I remember when newspapers decided to stop identifying suspects by race; that’s okay, most of the time we can figure it out by their names.
