Postmasters from communities around rural Alaska have been charged with embezzling funds over several years totaling several thousand dollars. The crimes, involving postal employees from Noatak, Selawik, New Stuyahok, Minto, Stebbins and Hooper Bay, occurred over a period of several years, dating back to 2003, according to the U.S. Attorney’s office in Anchorage. The timing of the charges, filed earlier this month, had more to do with the way the judicial process works than any supposed connection of the postal employees. “Sometimes it’s just easier for the Prosecutors to bundle all these investigations up for court at one time,” said Dan Mihalko, a spokesman for the postal service’s Office of the Inspector General.   The Federal prosecutor filed the following charges: * Postmaster Melissa Mae Brown, 27, of Selawik, stole postal money for her own between November 2006 and September 2007. * Postmaster Annie Chunak, 42, of New Stuyahok, stole cash-on-delivery packages and postal funds between June 2003 and April 2008. * Postmaster Brenda Marie Jimmie, 46, of Minto, stole postal checks between October 2005 and December 2005. * Postal employee Edna Bailey, 22, a.k.a. Edna Ashby, of Noatak, stole two checks in March 2008. * Postmaster Laura Odinzoff, 44, of Stebbins, embezzled postal money between December 2006 and March 2007. * Postmaster Nancy Raymond, 41, of Stebbins, embezzled postal funds between December 2006 and March 2007. * Postmas ...

In the Federal criminal system, when a person is arrested for a crime, or a corporation is being investigated for criminal conduct, credit for cooperating with the government can be obtained which can translate into a lower sentence. Federal law enforcement officials may ask a corporation's representatives to cooperate by identifying wrongdoers in the corporation, identifying and producing relevant documents and/or testifying about corporate practices. However, when the request to cooperate is made by the Federal Prosecutors, it may infringe on a criminal defendant's Constitutional rights, such as the right to confidential communications with his/her attorney. Last month, the Department of Justice issued new policies regarding how Federal Prosecutors are to handle the balance between credit for cooperation and the privileged communications involving a corporation and its employees. The new policies indicate that the government will not base credit for cooperation on whether a corporation waives the attorney-client privilege (communications about the case between a client and the attorney) or the work product privilege (documents and information created in anticipation of preparing for and litigating the case). Rather, credit for cooperation will depend on the disclosure of facts. In other words, whether a corporation waives either privilege will not be the issue. Whether the corporation discloses the information sought, regardless of ...
