February 26, 2003 (San Francisco) — He's got mail -- your mail.
A federal judge in San Francisco has sentenced confessed mail-thief Shawn Gementera to some public humiliation. He must stand outside a post office wearing a sign that reads: "I have stolen mail. This is my punishment." He's got to do it for a total of 100 hours.
Gementera must also serve two months in prison as part of a plea deal. The judge in the case says the sentence should drive home the point that stealing mail is wrong.
