Number 9 Jorge Luis Dupre Lachazo In August of 2019, Jorge Luis Dupre
Lachazo and David Gonzalez were making a delivery at the home of a senior citizen,
in Boca Raton, Florida. The company for which they worked had been contracted to deliver and install
a washer and dryer for 75-year-old Evelyn Smith Udell. Gonzalez went outside to make a few calls
while 21-year-old Lachazo talked to Udell, who was alone in the house at the time.
Gonzalez heard screaming and went inside to find the elderly woman on the floor,
burning and covered in blood. Lachazo fled the scene in the delivery truck but was
later apprehended by the police. He admitted to officers that he’d used a mallet to strike Udell
in the side of the head, knocking her unconscious. He then took a toxic chemical from the garage,
doused Udell and the room with it, before setting the woman on fire. She ultimately died of her
injuries. Lachazo didn’t provide a reason for the brutal slaying but claimed to have been under the
influence of cocaine and marijuana. A video from the Boca Raton interrogation room would
later show him crying and rolling down the floor in the fetal position. He told investigators that
he’d never see the light again and, at one point begged "Just take me out of here and kill me."
He was charged with first-degree murder, battery and arson. The case is ongoing and prosecutors
claimed they’d be seeking the death penalty. Number 8 Angela Summers
In April of 2020, an Indianapolis postal worker was gunned down because she’d reportedly refused
to deliver mail to an address where there was an aggressive chihuahua. Two days before she
was fatally shot, 45-year-old Summers had taken to Facebook to talk about the problems she’d had with
the pet. She claimed that, because it was a small dog, the owners just let the “nasty little devil”
run around. Summers added that, on multiple occasions, she’d asked them to restrain it,
also mentioning that she had to spray it twice. As dictated by procedure, a dog warning card
had been placed inside the homeowners’ mail box three times, with the last informing them about
the curtailment of mail. As Summers was working her usual route, 21-year-old Tony Cushingberry
confronted her about not having received his COVID-19 stimulus check. Cushingberry repeatedly
asked for his mail and then approached Summers. It was at that point that the letter carrier sprayed
him with mace. Cushingberry pulled out a gun from the right side of his waistband and fired
a single shot, killing the mother-of-one. When questioned by the police, the shooter claimed that
he knew the mace was non-lethal but that it had caused problems with his asthma and he, in turn,
wanted to scare the postal worker. Before he was identified as Summers’ killer,
the U.S. Postal Inspection Service had offered a $50,000 reward for information
leading to his arrest. Cushingberry was charged with second-degree murder, assaulting a federal
employee and discharging a firearm during a crime. Number 7 Destiny Rodriguez
In June of 2020, San Antonio woman Destiny Rodriguez was killed by a suspected drunk
driver. 27-year-old Rodriguez had dreams of one day becoming a makeup artist but had lost her
job during the pandemic and subsequently found work as a food delivery driver, to provide for
her four children. Rodriguez was on the job on June the 13th when the driver of a Hummer
lost control of the vehicle at the Martin Luther King Jr. Drive and
Walters intersection. The SUV crashed into Rodriguez’s car as well as another smaller
vehicle, the driver of which was transported to a local hospital with injuries. Rodriguez suffered
severe trauma and was pronounced dead at the scene. The man behind the wheel of the Hummer,
later identified as 39-year-old Leonel Martinez, fled the scene along with a passenger from the
vehicle. Martinez was arrested and faced several charges that included driving while intoxicated,
intoxication manslaughter as well as failure to stop and render aid.
Number 6 Jason Francis & Alice Robinson In December of 2018, a car accident involving
a Domino’s Pizza delivery driver set off a chain of tragic events that culminated in the death of a
couple. 29-year-old Jason Francis and his fiancée Alice Robinson, aged 26, had settled in Perth,
Australia, after travelling the world together. By all accounts, the couple, originally from the UK,
was happy and in love. Francis, a former RAF firefighter, was an asbestos technician in
the construction sector while Robinson worked for a lifestyle magazine. On December the 22nd,
Francis was out drinking with friends from his rugby club. He called Robinson and said that
he’d be home in a few minutes. Francis was only a few yards from their front door when he was struck
by a Volkswagen Jetta driven by an 18-year-old Domino’s Pizza worker, whose identity wasn’t
made public. Francis suffered devastating injuries to which he succumbed at the Royal Perth Hospital.
In the aftermath, the delivery driver claimed that he’d struck a motionless object
lying on the road and it’s unclear if he was held legally responsible for the accident.
Robinson reportedly collapsed when she heard about the accident. She arrived at the hospital and,
upon being told that her fiancé had died, said she needed some air but, instead of returning,
then drove off. A few hours later, Robinson sent a heartbreaking message to Francis,
in which she expressed her love and the intention to “join him”. She was later found dead in her car
from what was reported as a combination of alcohol and pills. Robinson’s parents blamed her death on
staff at Royal Perth for allowing her to leave alone while she was in a visibly distraught and
fragile state. A joint funeral service was held for the couple, who’d been together for over eight
years, while Francis’ rugby club raised $44,000 to help return their bodies to relatives in the UK.
Number 5 Jessica Halverson
In 2014, a Wisconsin postal worker was killed in a single-vehicle crash after
she lost control of her SUV on a highway, in the town of Caledonia. 22-year-old Jessica Halverson
was on her delivery route at the time and it’s unclear what had caused her vehicle to leave the
roadway on the right side. Speed and alcohol were later ruled out as contributing factors.
The 2001 Chevy Blazer continued off-road for about 400 feet before drifting into the highway again
and going over a steep ditch on the left side. The SUV ended up in a cornfield and overturned.
Halverson, who hadn’t been wearing a seatbelt, was ejected from the vehicle. She wasn’t breathing and
bystanders performed CPR until the emergency services arrived at the scene, where Halverson
was later pronounced dead. Number 4 Ryan Munsie
On January the 23rd of 2021, an UberEats driver was killed in a robbery-gone-wrong in Haltom City,
Texas. 31-year-old Ryan Munsie was making a delivery, in the Fort Worth suburb. She never
reached the customer’s door as she was attacked by two teenage boys, whose identities weren’t
disclosed because of their ages. Munsie suffered a fatal stab to the neck, with her body subsequently
found in a breezeway, and the attackers made off with her phone. According to her widowed husband,
Graham, he and Muncie were both homeless when they met, seven years before the tragic incident. They
stood by each other’s side, got an apartment, tied the knot and started a family. Munsie
worked as an ambulance driver for the disabled and supplemented her income through the delivery job.
She worked tirelessly to secure a future for her three children, aged 5,
7 and 11, whom were described as “her world”. In the investigation that followed her brutal murder,
the police tracked her phone to a dumpster at the Mercantile Square Apartments. They interviewed
residents and examined surveillance footage which ultimately led them to the two teens living in the
building. On January the 27th, the pair were taken into custody, without incident, by a SWAT team and
subsequently charged with capital murder. Number 3 Sherry Ingold
On January the 16th of 2020, Mississippi postal worker Sherry Ingold was fatally shot in Attala
County, while she was on the job. 58-year-old Ingold encountered Roland Mitchell Dampeer,
a man in his late 20s, along the Mississippi Highway 35, as she was delivering mail to a
retired nurse. It’s unclear what interaction, if any, the two had had before Dampeer shot the
postal worker in the head. She passed away at the University of Mississippi Medical Center,
in Jackson. Earlier that day, Dampeer had attempted to kidnap 26-year-old Andrea Gos,
from a supermarket, but she’d managed to escape. After he’d gunned down Ingold, Dampeer was shot by
law enforcement during their efforts to apprehend him but the wound he sustained wasn’t fatal.
Ingold’s family had been told, in the months leading up to Dampeer’s trial, to avoid talking
about the case as it might affect his prosecution. However, they became vocal about it following
rumors that Dampeer might be deemed unfit to stand trial by reason of insanity. The family
had expected him to be handed a life sentence but, instead, he was sent to a medical facility
where doctors would assess his mental competency. Ingold’s daughter, Kristy, continued to bring
attention to the case even in her engagement photos in which her fiancé held up a sign which
read “Justice for Sherry Ingold” while she held one with “You murdered the mother of this bride”.

Number 2 Passion Overstreet-Vinnett
Chicago postal worker Passion Overstreet-Vinnett died following a freak accident which occurred
on January the 28th of 2017. The 28-year-old was on the job and inside the Norwood Hand Carwash,
in the Lincoln Square neighborhood. 56-year-old Jerauld Kirkpatrick drove his Volkswagen Golf
through the closed overhead door of the carwash. According to a staff member, there were strobe
lights mounted outside meant to alert drivers. Overstreet-Vinnett was struck by the car and
pinned underneath the door, suffering crushing injuries. First responders arrived at the scene
and, after she was extricated, Overstreet-Vinnett was taken to St. Francis Hospital, in Evanston.
Unfortunately, her condition didn’t improve and she was pronounced dead. In the aftermath,
her family sued both Kirkpatrick and the carwash seeking an undisclosed amount of damages.
Number 1 Stacy Corley
On June the 17th of 2021, a Door Dash delivery driver was killed in Walnut Creek,
California, in what was described as a road rage incident. Aspiring rapper Stacy Corley was on the
last delivery of the evening when he got into an argument with the occupants of an SUV, near North
California Boulevard and Ygnacio Valley Road. They’d accused 25-year-old Corley of cutting them
off to which he’d reportedly responded by rolling down his window and showing them the middle
finger. It was at that point that 18-year-old Dylan Baker pulled out a gun and let off at least
eight shots into Corley’s car. The shooter had reportedly used hollow point bullets and the
delivery driver was fatally struck. Investigators identified the SUV by its Oregon license plates
and subsequently interviewed the occupants. Those who cooperated with the police reported that,
after the shooting, Baker had joked around saying “I think I emptied my clip”. The authorities
released photos of the shooter and he subsequently turned himself in to face charges of murder
and personal use of a firearm, which made him eligible for a sentence of 50 years to life.
