ANTIOCH, Tenn. (WTVF) — A 33-year-old Antioch man has been charged by a federal grand jury with unlawfully detaining and delaying the mail.
According to the U.S. Attorney's Office, DuJuan Butler was driving a U.S. Postal Service truck while delivering the mail in Antioch on August 3. A woman looked out her window and saw Butler taking mail and throwing them into the dumpster behind a strip mall.
She recorded and uploaded the video onto TikTok.
Postal Service employees were reportedly able to recover the discarded mail later on.
Butler faces up to five years in federal prison and a maximum fine of $250,000 if convicted.

September 11, 2001 is a day most associate with terror and tragedy. Austin Pollack shares a story from that day about hope and persistence: the effort to save a little girl’s life – with an organ donation. The problem? The young patient was in Houston, and her life-saving liver here in Nashville. With the grounding of all civilian aircraft, how could it be done? “Nobody ever said this isn’t possible.”
