CONCORD – A Lowell, Massachusetts man was charged by complaint and arrested this morning for his role in the April 16, 2024 robbery of a United States Postal Service letter carrier in Nashua, U.S. Attorney Jane E. Young announces.
Tyler Savinon, 18, was charged with aiding, abetting, counseling, commanding, inducing, and procuring the robbery of property of the United States. Savinon will appear in federal court in Concord today at 3:30pm.
According to the charging documents, Savinon directed two co-conspirators, including one juvenile, to rob the mail carrier in order to obtain a proprietary key that would unlock blue mail collection boxes in the Nashua area. Investigators obtained valuable information, pictures, and video from concerned residents, which helped to identify the robbers, and eventually led investigators to Savinon. Investigators determined that Savinon had used the stolen key to access at least two collection boxes in Nashua—one on Dunstable Road and one on Spring Street. Some of the stolen mail was used in financial crimes, such as “check washing.”
The charge provides for a sentence of up to ten years in prison, up to three years of supervised release, and a fine of up to $250,000. Sentences are imposed by a federal district court judge based upon the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and statutes which govern the determination of a sentence in a criminal case.
The United States Postal Inspection Service led the investigation. Valuable assistance was provided by the Nashua, New Hampshire Police Department and the Lowell, Massachusetts Police Department. Assistant U.S. Attorney Jarad E. Hodes is prosecuting the case.
The details contained in the charging documents are allegations. The defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
