A Virginia mailman has pleaded guilty to stockpiling thousands of pieces of mail in a storage locker because he “can’t make time” and felt “pressured” to complete his route, according to a new report.

Jason Delacruz, who works for the US Postal Service in Chesapeake, pleaded guilty to delay of mail, local station WAVY reported this week.

Back in May, someone filed a complaint with the USPS Office of Inspector General after spotting Delacruz unloading mail into a public storage facility in Virginia Beach. That person took several photos of Delacruz and his license plate, according to the report.

Delacruz initially told agents he didn’t go anywhere after leaving the post office that day — but after he was confronted with the information about the storage facility, he allegedly fessed up.

He explained that he “can’t make time” and felt “pressured” to finish his route, but simply could not, according to the report.

He said he rented the storage unit for $49 a month — only to pile up the mail he couldn’t deliver.

He also claimed “he first intended to deliver the mail when he found time, but fell behind and was never able to,” the station reported.

A search of the storage unit, and Delacruz’s personal vehicle, revealed 97 pieces of first-class mail, 115 pieces of pre-sorted and second-class mail and 4,723 pieces of advertisement mail, in addition to an undelivered package.

Delacruz will appear for sentencing on Feb. 12.
