Kan. woman sentenced to probation for stealing mail

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — A Wichita woman has been sentenced to five years of federal probation for stealing mail and cashing counterfeit checks.

Federal prosecutors say 35-year-old Jennifer R. Harper was sentenced Monday for conspiracy to commit bank fraud and conspiracy to steal mail. She admitted that she and two men stole the mail from postal boxes and took information and checks from the mail. They would then use the information to create counterfeit checks.

A co-defendant, Justin Anderson was sentenced earlier to 6 ½ years. Another man, Jeremy Robinson, was sentenced to one year, three months in federal prison.
