Shitbag pleads guilty to killing USPS carrier over delayed mail

INDIANAPOLIS — A man accused of fatally shooting a mail carrier over delayed deliveries in 2020 has pleaded guilty to second-degree murder.

Tony Cushingberry, 23, faces a maximum of life in federal prison after he admitted to police that he shot mail carrier Angela Summers in April 2020, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office in the Southern District of Indiana. He will be sentenced at a later date by a federal district court judge.

Summers was traveling her U.S. Postal Service route in April 2020 when investigators say she was confronted by Cushingberry on the east side of Indianapolis.

Mail delivery to the home had been delayed due to an aggressive dog at Cushingberry's residence, according to court documents. When Summers walked past the home without delivering the mail, Cushingberry confronted her and repeatedly asked for his mail while on a neighbor's porch, a court statement said.

having to deal w/ this stupid ignorant nut. I hope that he gets life but unfortunately that's not going to bring her back. I couldn't open the article to see if she had any family or kids, but gosh, this is horrible and just points out one of the many issues that carriers have to deal w/, irate citizens mad about their 'delayed' checks, takes revenge on carriers and so forth.
