Episode 185 March 24, 2023 -- "The Postal Crime Wave: A View from Law Enforcement" with Frank Albergo, president of the Postal Police Officers Association

During this week's episode of NAPS Chat, Frank Albergo, president of the Postal Police Officers Association, joins Bob Levi to discuss the postal crime wave and how to reduce it. The escalation in postal-related crime, including assaults on USPS personnel, mail theft and mail fraud, concurrent with the 2020 USPS operational change to limit the law enforcement authority of postal police to the perimeter of USPS-occupied property, raises questions about the agency's commitment to employee safety and mail security. Postal police are the uniformed members of the Postal Inspection Service, the nation's oldest law enforcement entity.
