A reality TV star was sentenced in connection with mail theft last summer in Chicago.
Dylan Smith, who appeared in Season 3 of the reality TV show “Love After Lockup,” has been convicted of felony burglary following a joint investigation by the United States Postal Inspection Service and the Chicago Police Department.
Smith was arrested on June 4, 2024, in connection with a May 2024 burglary and mail theft at a local condominium building. Smith allegedly used a U.S. Postal key to gain entry to a panel mailbox and stole mail.
He pleaded guilty in Cook County Criminal Court and was sentenced to 244 days in jail, credit for time served, and two years of supervised release.
“The United States Postal Inspection Service is committed to protecting the nation’s mail system from criminal activity,” stated Ruth M. Mendonça, Inspector in Charge of the Chicago Division.
Victims of suspected mail theft are encouraged to notify the US Postal Inspection Service at 1-877-876-2455 or go to www.uspis.gov/report.
