A man who stole debit and credit cards from the mail while he was an
employee at the U.S. Postal Service has been sentenced to two years in
federal prison.

> From May to July 2011, Jerome Harvey, 34, stole credit cards, debit
cards, and personal identification information as a temporary mail
sorter for the Postal Service, the U.S. attorney for the district of
Nevada said in a Tuesday release.

Harvey, of Las Vegas, pleaded guilty in November to one count of
aggravated identity theft and, in addition to prison time, was hit
with a $5,951 fine and a year of supervised release.

Harvey is allowed to remain free until June 7 when he’s expected to
report to prison.
