Cincinnati man pleads guilty to stealing more than 700 pieces of mail intended for bank

CINCINNATI - Isaac Jackson, 32, of Cincinnati, pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court today to stealing more than 700 parcels of mail intended for a national bank.

Jackson admitted that, on Oct. 5, 2025, he used an employee's badge to enter the U.S. Postal Service Network Distribution Center (NDC) in Sharonville, where he then stole mail parcels intended for the financial institution, packed them into two duffel bags, and left. Jackson did the same on Oct. 12 and 13.

On Oct. 26, 2025, Jackson attempted another theft at the NDC but was stopped by an employee. Jackson dropped the duffel bags and fled. He had 160 parcels of mail he was attempting to steal in the bags at the time.

The bank identified 769 mail parcels that were stolen from Jackson's prior thefts.

As part of his conviction, Jackson will pay at least $235,000 in restitution.

Mail theft is a federal crime punishable by up to 10 years in prison. Sentencing of the defendant will be determined by the Court based on the advisory sentencing guidelines and other statutory factors at a future hearing.

Dominick S. Gerace II, United States Attorney for the Southern District of Ohio, David Cunningham, Acting Inspector in Charge, U.S. Postal Inspection Service (USPIS), announced the guilty plea entered today before Senior U.S. District Judge Susan J. Dlott. Assistant Deputy Criminal Chief Timothy S. Mangan is representing the United States in this case.
