BATON ROUGE - A Baton Rouge man who orchestrated a scheme to steal mail, alter checks and deposit stolen funds into multiple bank accounts pleaded guilty in federal court.nbsp;Marvell Trevenski Jackson, Jr. pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit bank fraud and theft of mail.nbsp;From July 2023 to M ay 2025, Jackson sought to gain over $500,000 through his scheme.nbsp;U.S. Attorney Kurt Wall said Jackson bought stolen mail from a mail carrier out of Denham Springs and altered the checks to pay his "money mules," who set up bank accounts specifically to hide the ill-gotten funds.
