At Newcastle Magistrates' Court, Lamb pleaded guilty to intentionally delaying postal packets and stealing postal packets. He was given a 180-hour community rehabilitation order and was ordered to pay £483.86 compensation with £100 costs.

Is this part of the problems in Britain today, very light sentences? Community service and a $583.86 fine for stealing mail for 14 months?

Yeah, AND, he goes back to his mail route on Monday morning. I understand he has a list of all those who complained about missing material, as well.

It's not just that he stole mail for 14 months...
It's that he completely FAILED to deliver ANY mail for 14 months.
