A letter carrier from Forest City pleaded guilty in federal court on Tuesday to stashing thousands of pieces of mail at his home over a period of 14 years, hiding the mail in his home, vehicle and in an outbuilding that eventually collapsed, the U.S. Attorney's office said. By the time investigators caught on, he had failed to deliver two dumptruck loads worth of mail to postal customers on his route.
