Huntsville postal employee indicted on federal charge for destroying, withholding mail

A federal grand jury has indicted a Huntsville employee of the U.S. Postal Service who allegedly damaged or withheld mail while working at the general mail facility.

The indictment says Alexander Dockery destroyed, detained and delayed letters, postcards, packages and other mail over a six-month period in 2018.

Dockery was working as a mail handler at the Huntsville facility at the time.

No date has been set for Dockery to appear before a federal judge.
