PORT ANGELES — A former Sequim post office worker was charged last month in federal District Court with one count of embezzlement of mail by a postal employee.
Criminal information was filed Sept. 14 against Kevin M. Brown in U.S. District Court, Western District of Washington in Seattle.
Brown’s initial appearance and felony plea hearing is set for 2 p.m. today before U.S. Magistrate Judge Karen L. Strombom
Beginning within the past five years and continuing until March 15, Brown, while working as a U.S. Postal Service employee, “did knowingly embezzle and steal letters and mail and things of value contained therein, that had come into his possession and that were intended to be conveyed by mail,” the court document says.
U.S. Magistrate Judge James P. Donohue appointed assistant federal public defender Corey Endo to Brown’s case May 29.
Endo was not immediately available for comment.
