A federal jury in Brooklyn yesterday convicted Mahwanga Campbell, also known as “Mahwanga Elijah Solo Campbell” and “Elijah Campbell,” on all counts of a superseding indictment charging him with conspiracy to rob a mail carrier, possession of stolen mail, and the fraudulent deposit of stolen and/or altered United States Treasury checks. The charges arise from Campbell’s participation in the violent assault and robbery of a United States Postal Service (USPS) mail carrier in Queens, New York. The verdict was delivered after a two-week trial before United States District Judge Eric N. Vitaliano. When sentenced, Campbell faces up to 30 years’ imprisonment. Campbell’s co-conspirators remain at large.
