ATLANTA GA Aug 29 2011 — A grand jury has indicted a U.S. Post Office worker on charges of taking more than 100 gift cards worth $1,375 from the mail.
Prosecutors said in court filings Friday that Helen E. Hampton, who was then a U.S. Postal Service worker, took 133 Kohl’s gift cards valued at $10 each from the mail. They say she also took a $25 Sally Beauty Supply coupon and two Victoria’s Secret coupons valued at $10 each.
Authorities say she then tried to destroy the gift cards and coupons and cover up her involvement in the scheme.
An attorney for Hampton could not immediately be identified.
