NEWARK, N.J. – A former postal worker admitted to repeatedly burglarizing post offices in January and February 2023 to steal mail, U.S. Attorney Robert Frazer announced. Zyeama Johnson, 31, of Jersey City, pleaded guilty on July 28, 2026, before U.S. district Judge Madeline Cox Arleo in Newark federal court to six counts of an indictment charging her with burglary of a post office. The sentencing date is scheduled for November 24, 2026. According to documents filed in this case and statements made in court: Zyeama Johnson had previously been employed by the United States Postal Service (USPS) when she burglarized post offices six times in January and February 2023. During each burglary, Johnson entered after business hours with the intent of stealing mail from the post office. For example, on January 10, 2023, Johnson broke into a post office in Jersey City and stole two USPS mail bins and a parcel bin. Each of the burglary charges carries a maximum sentence of five years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000, or twice the value of the gain or loss, whichever is greater. U.S. Attorney Frazer credited postal inspectors with the United States Postal Inspection Service, under the direction of Inspector in Charge Christopher Nielsen, Philadelphia Division, with the investigation. The government is represented by Assistant U.S. Attorney Chana Y. Zuckier of the Bank Integrity, Money Laundering, and Recovery Unit in Newark. ### Defense counsel: Linda Foster, Esq. johnson.indictment.pdf
