Investigators searched her home and said they found a burn pile and stacks of mail on her porch.

She also admitted to opening some envelopes and stealing money, authorities said.

"There's a lot of stuff that goes through the mail you wouldn't want anybody to see, I guess," said a neighbor.

Rovelto told investigators she started keeping the mail at home because of the volume of mail she had to deliver.
