A former United States Postal Service employee is facing a lengthy prison sentence after a jury convicted him of stealing over $1.6 million in checks intended for individuals on his mail route.
Hachikosela Muchimba, 44, of Washington, D.C., fraudulently obtained and deposited close to 100 checks over a span of just under three years, according to a criminal complaint obtained by PEOPLE. Most of the checks were tax returns issued by the Treasury Department.
"Muchimba used the proceeds of the stolen checks to fund a lavish lifestyle that included international travel, stays at luxury hotels, and purchases at gentlemen’s clubs," prosecutors with the Justice Department said in a statement.
One of those trips was to the Bulgari Resort Bali in July 2022, according to a copy of the indictment obtained by PEOPLE. Authorities learned about that trip thanks to a $14,532.94 debit card purchase Muchimba made during his tropical getaway.
The Bulgari Bali Resort boosts 59 private oceanside villas, each with their own pool and bespoke butler service. The resort's website shows the cheapest villa would cost $1,313,63 per night in July, not including taxes and fees...

That individual then "recognized the name and the address on the U.S. Treasury check as the same name and address that [their] mail carrier had used on a holiday card," states the complaint.
When investigators went to the bank to learn more, they were "provided copies of four additional U.S. Treasury checks that were fraudulently negotiated" into the same account.
I guarantee, no.
Lock him up and throw away the key.
At least it was used to fund stuff the sounds like fun. Instead of paying for boring old bills or groceries. I can identify with the guy. I spent all my money on booze and women. The rest I wasted.
Exactly what I expected
NEWMAN!
"Muchimba was also found guilty at trial of unlawful procurement of naturalization," the U.S. Attorney’s Office said. "During the scheme, Muchimba applied to become a naturalized U.S. citizen and provided false information to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services officers by telling them that he had not committed any crimes for which he had not been arrested. That offense carries a maximum penalty of ten years of incarceration and possible administrative denaturalization."

Hachikosela Muchimba? Sounds like an all American!
Of course the USPS will hire a foreign national over a citizen.
“of Washington, D.C”
Working in DC but not of DC. Not a US citizen at time of thefts.
I’d like to know what the women he played with look like. If they took some of the money he was throwing around, wouldn’t they be considered accomplices or accessories after the fact to the crimes he committed?
A small version of reparations.
The boy needs to get with the DNC and do a little “judge” shopping. They know all the “good” Feral “judges.”
Half the time I can barely get my bank to cash legitimate checks to me.
How in the heck does this guy get checks made out to someone else cashed? Repeatedly?
Hachikosela Muchimba??
WTF. Another alien.
He tried to flee to Zambia.
Send him to Gitmo instead.
At least he didn't waste the money.
