New Jersey Man Sentenced in Maine Post Office Robberies

31-year-old Winston McLeod of New Jersey was sentenced today, Nov. 14, for burglarizing two post offices in Maine and robbing two letter carriers at knifepoint.

McLeod will spend more than four years behind bars followed by three years of supervised release.

McLeod broke into post offices in North Monmouth and Paris in January. They stole money order printers, mail, computers and other items. He was accompanied by 31-year-old Lance Funderburk, also from New Jersey, who has not been sentenced yet.

The pair also robbed two Lewiston postal carriers, threatening to stab them, unless they turned over their postal keys.
