Assistant U.S. Attorney Elizabeth R. Moellering, who handled the case, stated that the defendant, who worked as a mail carrier for the U.S. Postal Service, took a letter containing New York State Safety Inspection Certificate stickers and used the stickers on vehicles owned by him or members of his family. Lamacchia did so in order to avoid having the vehicles inspected or repaired to pass inspection.
The sentencing is the culmination of an investigation by Special Agents of The United States Postal Service, Office of the Inspector General, under the direction of Monica Weyler, the New York State University Police at the University at Buffalo, under the direction of Chief Gerald Schoenle Jr., and the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles, Division of Field Investigation, under the direction of Executive Deputy Commissioner Theresa Egan.
