Former Scott County Mail Carrier Indicted
KENTUCKY....
A federal grand jury has indicted former Scott County mail carrier Melinda Ann Rutland on two counts of theft. Nicole Alexakos, a Georgetown resident along Rutland's route, contacted a postal investigator, who determined Rutland appeared to have opened some of the letters on her route and stole the money inside. If found guilty, Rutland faces up to five years in prison and up to $250,000 in fines and could also be forced to pay back all the money that went missing. That amount has yet to be determined. Rutland's trial is set to begin February 7, 2011.
