Did you know, if you sent letters to Santa early this year (whereever your personal Santa lives) in USA, that it could be, that he never received your letter?

Yep, infact in Detroit on October 26th some mail carrier got robbed.
Postal related crime must be big in USA, since they have a Postal Inspection Service.
Under Who We Are we learn more about them:
Explore a world of career opportunities with the U.S. Postal Inspection Service.
U.S. Postal Inspectors are federal law enforcement agents with investigative jurisdiction in all criminal matters involving the integrity and security of the U.S. Postal Service.
Postal Inspectors investigate criminal, civil, and administrative violations of postal-related laws, often using forensics and cutting-edge technologies. It is essential that Postal Inspectors be in sound physical condition and be capable of performing vigorous physical activities on a sustained basis.
Inspectors are required to:
Carry firearms
Make arrests
Provide testimony
Serve subpoenas
Execute search warrants
Prepare comprehensive reports
Pursue and restrain suspects
Protect themselves and others from imminent dangerInspectors work long and irregular hours, and must be willing to relocate. Competition is intense for the relatively few U.S. Postal Inspector positions. Candidates must successfully complete all phases of the recruitment process and begin their first duty assignment prior to their 37th birthday.
You may be eligible to become a Postal Inspector if you…
Are an American citizen between the ages of 21 and 36½, and interested in an exciting and rewarding career in federal law enforcement
Possess a conferred, four-year degree from an accredited college or university
Have no felony or domestic violence convictions
Are in good physical condition
Write and speak English clearly
Are willing to relocate
Which makes it sound, like a police officer.
Like the poor Postal Inspector is faced with letter robbers that are terrorists armed with bombs, being very much shielded just to find 10 USD in an envelope or reading grandmother’s “hello letters” of his neighbours.
Luckily, I have never seen such people over here.
