The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Kansas also issued a news release outlining the facts of the case.
“Beginning in October 2026, Cram is accused of stealing 4,404 pieces of mail that were intended to be delivered to customers in and around Pittsburg, Kansas,” the release read.
“Among the mail items she allegedly stole and placed in her garage were nearly 400 political mailers solely related to Republican candidates or Republican Party-affiliated political action committees,” it continued.
“Agents found no mailers related to candidates of any other political party at Cram’s residence,” the U.S. Attorney’s Office concluded.
The U.S. Postal Service Office of Inspector General is currently investigating the matter.
