Choate,I the Ninth Circuit held that a mail cover 2 is not an unreasonable search and seizure in violation of the fourth amendment of the United States Constitution.3 The majority of the court recognized that the reasonableness of the mail cover procedure is to be measured by the criteria set forth in Katz v. United States,4 but did not find that an addressee seeks privacy with respect to the outside cover of his mail or that such an expectation would be reasonable. I. INTRODUCTION A mail cover is a surveillance of an addressee's mail conducted by postal employees at the request of law enforcement officials.5 While not expressly permitted by federal statute, a mail cover is authorized by postal regulations in the interest of national security and crime preven- tion,6 and permits the recording of all information appearing on the outside cover of all classes of mail.7 Under the regulations, the Chief 1.

  • Mail Cover Surveillance: Problems and Recommendations
    MAIL COVER SURVEILLANCE: PROBLEMS AND RECOMMENDATIONS A Report by NACDL’s Fourth Amendment Advocacy Committee Reporter: Steven R. Morrison April 19, 2015 Mail Cover Surveillance: Problems and Recommendations Steven R. Morrison Reporter, NACDL Vice-Chair, Fourth Amendment Advocacy Committee April 19, 2015 Introduction Mail cover surveillance (“mail covers”), which is the investigative practice of recording the information listed on the outside of mail going to or from a designated address, has existed since the nineteenth century.1 While often a legitimate tool of criminal investigations, mail covers have been abused. They were used in the 1950s against suspected communists and expanded to include surveillance of the contents of letters.2 Indeed, CIA and FBI agents used mail covers to intercept hundreds of thousands of letters in the 1950s and 1960s, sometimes smuggling them out of post offices to open and read them to avoid postal worker intervention.3 It was only after a fifteen year-old girl was targeted in the 1970s for sending a letter to the Socialist Workers Party as a class assignment that the abuses came to light.4 As a result of these abuses, mail cover regulations were promulgated in 1975, and now appear at 39 C.F.R. § 233.3.5 Based on concerns about the vagueness and overbreadth of 1 David S.

The Envelope, Please: Problems and Proposals for Electronic Mail Surveillance The King hath note of all that they intend, By interception which they dream not of.1 Introduction Consider the envelope, and what it represents in twentieth century America. Perhaps of primary importance is the envelope's two-faceted role in the posting of mail. It provides a convenient display of necessary information for the letter's delivery, and cloaks the letter's contents from all but the recipient. Utility aside, an envelope may symbolize the cere- mony of unveiling a secret, as when a ritualistic request for "The envel- ope, please" creates the usual suspense. An envelope may evoke sentiment, whether romantically sealed with a kiss or ominously ad- dressed with pasted letters and numbers cut from newsprint. It is diffi- cult to imagine a system of correspondence without the folded piece of paper that comprises the physical envelope.

Cottrell, Chief Postal Inspector of the U.S. Postal Service. On behalf of the men and women of our agency, I appreciate the opportunity to present the testimony of the U.S. Postal Inspection Service in support of this hearing on Data Security at the U.S. Postal Service. As one of our country's oldest federal law enforcement agencies, founded by Benjamin Franklin, we have a long, proud, and successful history of fighting crime against those who attack our nation’s postal system and misuse it to defraud, endanger, or otherwise threaten the American public. For over 250 years, Postal Inspectors have investigated criminal offenses involving the mail and the postal system. From embezzlements in colonial Post Offices to mail train robberies in the 1800s, from major fraud cases in the 1900s to the mailing of deadly anthrax in 2001, Postal Inspectors have worked diligently to ensure America’s confidence in the U.S. Mail. Postal Inspectors tenaciously investigate criminal offenses involving the mail or the postal system. As federal law enforcement officers we carry firearms, make arrests, and serve federal search warrants and subpoenas. To carry out our mission, Inspectors work closely with the Department of Justice and U.S. Attorney’s Offices, other federal and local law enforcement agencies, and local prosecutors to investigate cases and prepare them for court.

  • Mail Cover Surveillance: Problems and Recommendations
    MAIL COVER SURVEILLANCE: PROBLEMS AND RECOMMENDATIONS A Report by NACDL’s Fourth Amendment Advocacy Committee Reporter: Steven R. Morrison April 19, 2015 Mail Cover Surveillance: Problems and Recommendations Steven R. Morrison Reporter, NACDL Vice-Chair, Fourth Amendment Advocacy Committee April 19, 2015 Introduction Mail cover surveillance (“mail covers”), which is the investigative practice of recording the information listed on the outside of mail going to or from a designated address, has existed since the nineteenth century.1 While often a legitimate tool of criminal investigations, mail covers have been abused. They were used in the 1950s against suspected communists and expanded to include surveillance of the contents of letters.2 Indeed, CIA and FBI agents used mail covers to intercept hundreds of thousands of letters in the 1950s and 1960s, sometimes smuggling them out of post offices to open and read them to avoid postal worker intervention.3 It was only after a fifteen year-old girl was targeted in the 1970s for sending a letter to the Socialist Workers Party as a class assignment that the abuses came to light.4 As a result of these abuses, mail cover regulations were promulgated in 1975, and now appear at 39 C.F.R. § 233.3.5 Based on concerns about the vagueness and overbreadth of 1 David S.
