An emigrant from Russia who worked at a post office in Brooklyn did not deliver more than 17 thousands of packages and letters

In Brooklyn, an employee of the US Postal Service, an immigrant from Russia, Alexei Germash, who did not deliver more than 17 thousands of packages and letters, was arrested. Writes The New York PostHe worked as a postman in the Dyker Heights department for over 16 years.

Germash said to the investigators that he was amazed at the number of letters and parcels that he needed to be delivered daily, so he didn’t refer something to clients. But he stressed that the "important mail" always delivered.

17 thousands of undelivered letters and parcels gathered over the last 12 years, the man kept them in his car, apartment and even in a locker in the office of the Postal Service.

It was possible to find out about the violation after the police reported that in Garmash’s Nissan Pathfinder 20 is located complete mail service boxes with correspondence.

Law enforcement officers found 10 letters in Garmash’s car, 000 in his work locker and another 1000 in his apartment. The oldest unshipped package was dated 6.

The branch manager, Josephine Beckmann, believes that a large number of undelivered parcels in Dyker Heights still due to the fact that the post office has contracted Amazon, and the number of gears has increased dramatically. Post offices can not cope with the load.

“I think there needs to be a detailed audit and find out what caused this situation so it doesn’t happen again,” Beckmann said.

The first court session in the Garmash case took place on April 19, a man was released on bail of 25 thousand dollars. If convicted, he faces a prison sentence of up to 5 years.
