Judy and Jimmy Spears are starting to wonder when the U.S. Postal Service will deliver on a repair.Or take a phone call.Community-style mailboxes in their neighborhood were broken into and vandalized about two months ago. The backs of each box, standing side by side and in plain view of a security camera, were ripped off, exposing 24 individual boxes and leaving many vulnerable to mail theft.The boxes remain unfixed, affecting 22 residences along Marino Way and Teresa Place, near Sierra High School. A letter from the U.S. Postal Inspection Service has been taped to the front of each mailbox, warning residents of mail theft.Two months after the incident, residents reached by The Bulletin say they’re more concerned by the lack of urgency shown by the postal service than missing mail.
