ATLANTA (FOX 5 Atlanta) - Sixteen former metro Atlanta postal workers will serve federal prison time for taking bribes to deliver cocaine.
The federal case was part of a wide-reaching undercover operation that started in 2015.

No criminal charges will be filed against any of the 42 people associated with a caravan of Central American migrants who were arrested in a clash that ended with U.S. authorities firing tear gas into Mexico to counter rock throwers, The Associated Press has learned.
The decision not to prosecute came despite President Donald Trump’s vow that the U.S. will not tolerate lawlessness and after extensive preparations were made for the caravan, including deployment of thousands of active-duty troops to the border.
Charges were not filed because the administration generally doesn’t separate families and because Customs and Border Protection didn’t collect enough evidence needed to build cases, including the names of arresting officers, according to a U.S. official familiar with the matter who was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity.
Customs and Border Protection acknowledged that no charges were filed but declined to say why.
So Europe, the Plan is to import around 4 BILLION migrants.
You've got plenty of room.
Germany has room for 275 million (population was 82 million in 2008)
Sweden has room for 441 million (population was 9 million in 2008)

I’ve been on the City Council for almost 50 years and as you know I’ve been involved in previous investigations, I’ve always cooperated, nothing has ever come of any of those investigations," he said. "I’ll fully cooperate in this one. I’m confident that again there’ll be nothing found to be amiss.”
He would not answer whether or not he had been questioned by the Chicago police, FBI or U.S. Attorney's office.
Asked what he thought of speculation that the investigation had anything to do with his previous work for President Donald Trump, Burke laughed and repeated his statement about how nothing will be found "amiss."
Asked if he thought the investigation could hurt his chances for re-election, Burke said “that’s up to the voters.”
“I’ve had the trust of the voters of this community for 50 years, and I am certain that they know that I am a person of integrity and honesty and we’ll see what happens,” he said.
A witness reported seeing at least a dozen, possibly as many as two dozen, federal agents dressed in dark suits taking the elevator to Burke's office on the third floor of City Hall.
Burke is both the alderman and the Democratic committeeman for the 14th Ward on the Southwest Side, as well as the longest-serving City Council member in Chicago history, first elected in 1969.

Widely considered to be one of the most powerful politicians in Chicago, Burke chairs the council's Finance Committee.
He is far and away the most prolific fundraiser on City Council, with more than $12 million in three campaign committees as of the most recent filing deadline on Sept. 30.
Burke has previously been subject to scrutiny over potential conflicts of interest, as well as federal investigations over allegations of ghost payrolling.
In 2012, a federal grand jury subpoenaed six years worth of records from Burke's Finance Committee amid an investigation into Chicago's employee disability program.
He has never faced charges in any of the investigations.
