A former Houston post office clerk was sentenced to 18 months in federal prison Monday for stealing thousands of movies sent through the mail.

Anthony Zuniga, 53, of Houston, was convicted of two counts of mail theft by a postal employee. His sentence includes three years probation and a $4,000 fine.

Last year, the Postal Service received reports from Netflix, a company that rents movies by mail, that an unusually high number of DVDs were missing from the company's box at the 401 Franklin Street post office in Houston. At the time, Zuniga, a 32-year employee, was assigned to that location.

Using surveillance, U.S. Postal Inspectors watched Zuniga steal 122 DVDs from the post office and later found another 8,000 stolen Netflix and Blockbuster DVDs during a search of his home.:shake:

Why couldn't the dumb fuck just rent them and copy hem like everyone else does!
