This isn't just petty crime. This is a Federal crime.
it's liberal loonyland, most federal crimes are misdemeanors.
Who cares? This is NewScum Kalifornia
Yes, but I don't see the Feds putting much effort into combating this. Maybe they are behind the scenes?
The postmaster general is completely corrupt and I'm not quite sure why he hasn't been fired yet.@@shauny2285
So politicians not taking tax payers money for their own personal interests is not a federal crime. What makes you think stealing shït mail and people debt is a federal crime?
He also got his wallet, he needs to be careful of home invasions
How is the mail postal office not secure to park your personal vehicle?
Maybe the postal worker had a key for a gate that the thieves now have.
@@MustangGuy2000because gates are open and there is no one guarding the parking lots.
alot of post offices arent even gated at all
So ppl not gonna get their mail?
@@cupidok2768 it’s the US Post Office. It was 50/50 they would’ve gotten it anyway
Now they know where he lives. They have his house keys. They can come rob him whenever they like. The trauma afterward is even worse. it's like getting violated every day. If they come by.
Just wait for him to leave and move in.
Squatters rights!
Not gonna happen, for $100K? This thief’s hommie, his own mamma, is gonna snitch on him in no time 😂he’s going to jail fast
$100,000 reward for snitching that sounds like the hustle right there y’all better hope I don’t find out who you are before the cops do because I’m collecting that check
Are you my African American????
Same bro. I don’t even live there but if I find any info I’m telling
Snitching has been a hustle for decades. They are also called informants. This is what gang stalkers disguise themselves as. They stalk and harass people who haven’t even committed crimes and frame them for money.
Did you know? The thief of a single letter is a Federal Crime with a mandatory 5 year sentence. In 28 years of Law Enforcement and all the Mail Thieves we have caught, not on had been charged with a Federal Crime! Same with Car Jacking!!!
Oh wow... so mail crime is just all bark then? i thought it was taken more seriously- even back then. That's what I was always told.
If 1 letter is mandatory 5 years, does each letter stack? so if there were 5 pieces of mail would that be 25 years?
It's B.S. they rather have a crime right in the open but who will arrest the criminal. If I would've been in my situation, I'm getting arrested not the criminals 😂
Biden has entirely changed with that FBI is. FBI is now a political enforcement arm for the Democrat crime family.
Just another day in the Bay Area
horrible parking lot traffic..check. Idiot drivers....check...homelessness...check...Brazen retail theft...double check...obscene gas prices...and home and grocery prices...interest rates...and you cant even get your mail without there bring a bar installed across your mailbox...and now this...😂😂😂😂😂
Thieves have no fear. All this crying for justice reform and defunding the police seems to have backfired.
Here is a thought, refund the police!!
Usual Suspects
THIS definitely seems like an inside job.
Police don't prevent crime though. They always show up after the fact.
Y desperate to steal truck
bet all these perps have long extensive criminal histories and have been let out early multiple times. bro they his car from a “secured” area.
Exactly what I thought. Repeat offenders.
I'm not worried, they are probably grade school dropouts, soon they will be homeless bums, or already are, and won't be around much longer.
You really think postal inspectors give a shit? They havent even done anything about criminals breaking into community mailboxes
But this is one of their own, they don't care about us but they have to at least look like they care about their own.
@@echung168 do you really think so? I don't think so because all these inspectors etc..are Democratic party supporters and they all voted for criminal justice reforms,decriminaliztion of drug use,looting etc..So I don't think they care about their own. The criminals are now venturing into other towns is the new thing here. We will see more violent crimes in Fremont in the coming months.
It isn't that Postal Inspectors or other law enforcement don't care. A lot of the times, they identify a suspect but the prosecutor's office decline the case
Trump didn't want to fund the Postal service.
The postal service went down hill in the last 20yrs living off tax paying money
These judges will release the criminals.
Hell with how friendly these judges act to these criminals I'm surprised they don't just give them a Chili's gift card on their way out
It's funny how ignorant right thinking people assume Trump in office will fix this
what's the point of the police department even trying when the judge is going to let them out with no punishment
That's the democrats for you ! People are getting what they voted for.
If judges are made victims one day, probably their attitudes towards criminals might change.
Dude is just doing his job. And thieves have to ruin it. Fucked up
Doubt it
surprised the USPS post office doesn't have cameras... maybe they need to put them in the trucks now too
Hi! USPS has old vehicles (older than my age) and they don't spend money for it, so can not put dash cam on Postal vehicle. Battery of vehicle easy to die and break down on the street.
This was a inside job
Should be robots instead of humans handling my mail
What's the odds of any thief stealing all the right things ......and the persons car that they have no clue if one exists, much less where it's parked. I'm not buying it......
Stfu why?? So they can watch them?
For $100k I’m snitching. $100k to point the finger at someone who possibly could’ve stole your mail too
I’m a mailman in bay area.Postal inspectors and the usps doesn’t do anything! This year I got 4 break in! And 2x a week they open my gang box (mailbox) ! The post office and postal inspectors Doesn’t do shit!!
That's disappointing
Under cover cops need to surveillance this house either out side or hide out there undercover while the man is at work in case the idiots try to break in to the man’s house.
💯👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Horse thieves and car thieves is there a difference?
I new low! How did they know to go to his work place and get his car? And was his car in a locked gate at work? Also, there should be cameras on the grounds of a post office. The criminal should get a mandatory 25 years to life for this.
Um they found car key, Then they just went to the few nearest local post office to find his car and that’s what they did
They probably put 2 and 2 together. USPS car, personal keys=USPS worker=USPS parking lot
Yeah it’s kinda crazy and bold to go searching for the actual postal location to find his vehicle.
Sounds like an inside job, a coworker for example.
Duh
How did they gain access into the USPS gated lot? And there were no cameras there? 🤔
They stole his key or card to get in most likely.
The lot gates in fremont are open during the day. No ID to badge in or anything. They only close them later at night
I don't understand why people in California complain about the crime but they don't try to fix it. Instead they make the law even more criminal friendly. Why?
BLM
Because they are brainwashed from the politicians.
Mr. Trump is the only criminal. right?
Depends on the county. For example, the LA County prosecutors office is lenient while the Orange County prosecutor is not.
Crime is down in California.
Living in this blue sanctuary city is absolutely terrifying.
This is a Federal crime. There could be cameras/tech installed in the mail trucks that take photos and alert police. I feel for anyone out making an honest living being oreyed upon by these predators. I hope they're found and prosecuted to the max!
Auto theft should be a mandatory 20 year minimum prison sentence with absolutely no chance whatsoever of getting out early. I'd be interested to see how much of it we would see if that were the punishment.
But they just "borrowed" it to get groceries! 😂
is this done by someone who knows him ?
They be like; “Help Wanted: Postal Worker - Seeking a Strategic Problem-Solver, must be ready for combat and have your own bulletproof vest.”
Hmm, car key wallet and cell phone are always with me.
there should be some car/truck alarms installed to prevent these situations.
also, would any hidden cameras or street cameras or even neighbors’ ring cameras catch images of the thieves?
Makes me want to move to the Bay Area. Such a place of brotherly love.
That's petty! Steal from corporations and the government all you want but a 9-5 employee come on
Time for street justice
Multiple federal crimes
The Feds need to arrest and prosecute. Federal crimes require mandatory sentences and completion of most of the sentence before any shot at parole.
Lookout for young black males
You should been looking for them $100,000 reward
They are J B supporters
Yep.
@@malin7919😂😂😂 they don’t vote
DA Price be like: "they my nephews their victims too"
And if caught….30 days in jail. Just like a sentence a judge handed down a week ago. Crime pays.
More like released by tomorrow.
But this isn't petty crime. USPS is government, this is a Federal crime.
The Criminals know Pamela Price has got their backs! Thats why Criminals continue to do what they do... 🤔
Why is there even crime to begin with? I thought humans have finally reached a point where intelligence and self-respect was a goal in life.
blacks
This is what happens in a godless world. If man is left to his own devices, he will elevate his own self, above others.
Well said...
So the thieves will turn themselves in, get the $100K reward and then the judges will just release them? Great system ya got there, SFO.
The mail trucks should have a camera in them and gps in case anyone steals the truck.
They were casing him the entire time through his route
Could be a scam. How would they know which station to drive to after robbing his truck? And the exact car? And NOBODY noticed at the station?
There's only a few sorting facilities in Fremont with parking for postal trucks, so it's easy to guess the location of the postal worker's personal vehicle. Also many cars have keyless remotes these days.
How is it a scam? That would be so easy to figure out based on Zipcode and area service facilities.
Sounds like you're Slow😮
Talk about operating with impunity. Too comfortable committing crimes.
$100,000 reward!!! It’s just a matter of time before these idiots get caught.
then some convenience store clerk asks, 'how's your day going, sir?'
lol 10K and someone is snitching. 100k someone will deliver you.
Criminals have no fear of being caught or doing time
Incompetence
California, what a country!!
Unfortunately, going to see a lot more of this as our neighbors to the south - where crimes like this would be common - come up north to be our NEW friendly neighbors.
Reference to postal worker had said, it logically relay that the victim was being followed or being tracked. Lost of belongings and keys that lead to his personal car lost in the USPS parking lot. Thief or thieves planned and knew how and where to strike.
Sorry but why would you leave all that stuff in your mail truck?
Go tell the mayor or the governor see if they care mailman was always off limits along with firefighters and most cops
Official Criminal Offense
Sounds like he got too comfortable delivering his route. Every postal vehicle has a sliding, locking door that separates the front from the back. I learned to always keep everything in the back and close that door whenever away from vehicle. It’s a pain but better than having anything stolen.
Don’t worry the Alameda County DA will make sure they get prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
The neighborhood mailbox for this end of my street is in my front yard. I have a home security camera covering my front door and it takes great pictures of the mail box. One night at around 4:30 AM. Someone drove up and using her key opened the mailbox and started chucking mail and packages into the open passenger door of the vehicle. When she was done she got back into the passenger side and the driver drove off. She didn’t shut the car door until a ways down the street so as not to make unnecessary sound. I called USPS to report all this and notified them I had it all on camera to use as evidence. I never heard back from USPS again. It seems they were totally uninterested in solving this crime.
Neighbors are the thieves
So the mailman leave the mail truck unlocked? Is that how the thieves got in? News didn’t explain?
Somebody didn't like him i would say. That's fd up. I would be so mad, words could not express.😢i feel for this man. Defeat is all that comes to mind. They got him good.😢
I live in Vegas and I know the main post office across from the airport and my local post office has cameras literally everywhere. So even having his keys and probably gate card it would have to be on camera right? It's not safe. It's a low down crime to steal mail, but he probably doesn't carry all that personal stuff so he's not robbed walking his route because I've seen that too. Then to know these animals have his address and personal information would make me uneasy and unable to rest. Hopefully the usps helps him out. Hopefully he puts a fraud alert on his accounts, locks his credit and debit cards until he gets new ones. I feel so bad for him and his family.
It’s called a bol she Vic revo lution
Taking his car from the PO's lot?
That's some cold s*it!
Talk about felony upon felony!
You can hear him laughing at the savagery. Geez
Auntie Pam can’t protect her nephews and nieces when it’s a federal crime.
What the thieves don't understand is it is now a federal offense and they can do some hard time
wait, 100K reward for mail theft?
This reward is no small change now.If you get this reward you can stop breaking into cars/trucks.
@@thaimassage23 u could snitch on ur friends, and move to a new city!
It must be an inside job?!
How does the thief know which post office your car was parked and how it looked like, the exact parking space.
This must be someone that has been watching him and following him for several months.
An ex employee maybe.
Somebody familiar with him and his routes, knows personal things about him.
Wondering if it's an ex?
Sad time we live in ....
YAAAYYYYY AAARRREEEAAAAA!!!!! Man, what a sad story the whole bay has become in the last 15 years… All you hear is bad news. Good things happen, but the cement of a new reputation is hardening and it will take a lot to change it for the better.
Unbelievable dam thieves and more thieves
Talk about having a hard day.
But did the mailman go postal afterwards?
This guy definitely got way too comfortable on his route.
I wonder who the race of the criminals were??
For real sounds like someone who also works for the PO… I used to work for the USPS. The badge didn’t indicate which post office I worked at.. they broke into your truck, stole your keys etc. How would they know which branch you worked at and which car you drive..
Just seems like someone who knows the victim. Maybe not a coworker
I would not even take my personal items with me.
Never ever mess with the post office you will go to federal prison!!!!!!!!!
Depressing.
It's a federal crime, even stealing stamps.
$100k reward ? is it dead or alive ?
USPS a multi billion dollar company doesn't have any cameras on the outside perimeter of building? that's absurd.
It's surprising with cameras everywhere, the cops in post office are unable to share photos or videos of the thieves?
Where would a thief get a hundred thousand dollars?
my question is how did the theives know which post office he worked for and where his car was parked sounds like a inside job
These crimes have been happening for a while, Jeff you should resign bruh, have you caught anyone? Has anyone been prosecuted?
How did the thief know which post office location they parked at
You need to tell me that he works for the Postal Service and they don’t have cameras all over the damn place IN AND OUT DOORS, REALLY???? Put cameras in your truck as well.
I hope you get your car and belongings back. Some People suck and yall deserve better
100k will have their whole family snitching. They won't get too far.
Fremont the new capital of crime soon to surpass Oakland, a friend's locksmith van was stolen in Newark
Because this is a federal crime security needs to be upgraded even if an additional carrier ride alone!!!
The Asian reporter, Gia Vang has an Americanized voice
I have zero faith in this state. Bye
Serious question. What kind of car is it? I'll check my neighborhood in Oakland.
Dodge Durango black
Hearing people complain about crime who have spent their entire lives voting for politicians who are soft on it is annoying.
We need to go back to "three strikes", or worse.
Why would you leave so many items in a vehicle
Sounds personal
Sounds like they might know him or even work at the post office...i wonder if they have footage of the person who took his car...
Thought they meant the thieves robbed the postal truck but while they were doing the the Thieves car was stolen
When you are in your work truck, just bring your drivers licence, a work id or whatever you need for work, a credit card you can cancel or maybe a few bucks. Hide them somewhere. Do not bring your full wallet. Hide your phone too. And the USPS needs to ut alarms on their postal trucks. May not stop them but you dont have to make it easy for them.
