Dendrick Emery, age 42, from Brooklyn, was charged on Wednesday, June 5, with grand larceny and other crimes.
He allegedly stole checks from the mail stream and then deposited them into his bank account remotely during his work shifts at a Suffolk County branch of the US Postal Service.
“The reliability of the mail service is an important part of our quality of life, and I am dedicated to doing my part to protect it,” Suffolk County District Attorney Raymond A. Tierney said.
Emery was caught after the USPS Office of Inspector General launched an investigation in September 2023. Shortly after, the Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office and Homeland Security agents joined the investigation
