A federal jury convicted a Salt Lake City woman and former postal worker Wednesday for delaying and destroying immigration mail.
During her time working the night shift as an express mail clerk at the USPS Processing and Delivery Center in Salt Lake City, Diana K. Molyneux was responsible for sorting and processing express and priority mail. After immigration mail from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services went missing in the fall of 2017, Molyneux's coworkers reported to supervisors that they found the mail in places it wasn't supposed to be, the U.S. Department of Justice said in a news release.
Camera footage between April and June 2018 showed Molyneux digging through pre-sorted mail, then taking out and setting aside priority immigration mail, according to federal prosecutors. The mail was never put back in its proper place, investigators said. During further surveillance, federal agents witnessed Molyneux repeatedly removing mail and burying six pieces of priority immigration mail in a shred bin. Shred bins are typically used to destroy and recycle undeliverable bulk mail.
"Ms. Molyneux used her position as a U.S. Postal employee to interfere with the delivery of mail. The fact that she targeted immigration mail makes this offense more egregious," U.S. Attorney Trina A. Higgins, of the District of Utah, said in the release. "We will continue to work with law enforcement to investigate and prosecute cases where public servants abuse their position to discriminate and cause harm to our community.
