Two FedEx employees in Magnolia charged in connection with theft of $188,000 in silver

MAGNOLIA(NJ) — Two FedEx employees have been charged in connection with the theft of more than $188,000 worth of silver coins and bars from the FedEx Ground Facility on Atlantic Avenue.


Julian C. Marshall of Blackwood and Jason M. Ramage of Bellmawr were arrested Tuesday after police here were notified of the theft.

Some of the silver was traced to a local pawn shop, which led to the identity of the two men, police said. Both men worked at the Atlantic Avenue facility, said police.

More than $95,000 in silver and some electronic products purchased with funds from pawned silver were found the home of one of the men, police said.

One suspect’s vehicle was seized by police.

Marshall was charged with theft and conspiracy to commit theft. Ramage was charged with receiving stolen property and conspiracy to commit theft.

Both have been lodged in the Camden County Jail to await a bail hearing.

    I guess that makes them "Ex" Fed-Ex employees image

    Sounds like they only found half of the silver.

    Since they were FEDEX employees, I would assume that FEDEX will be on the hook for whatever is not recovered.

  • I wonder how they knew it was silver. There had to some clue.
    I wonder how long it was going on.
    Who was doing the investigating?

    That's got to be it. Other than knowing the shipper or receiver, I don't see any other way.

    50-75+ lb large boxes going like crazy across the country the last 6 months? I can guess what might be in there:

    1. precious
    2. metals

    Last time I looked, FEDEX wouldn't insure coins or precious metals.

    None of the ground carriers do. That's why we must use USPS when the value exceeds what we're willing to lose.
    Many, many perfect transactions with other members. Ask please.

    I think you could be right.

    From 2000 to 2005, I worked for a diamond internet company and we only lost one diamond in that time (worth about $10,000) because of a delivery problem (and yes we used Fedex) and guess where the diamond was supposed to end up??................New Jersey!!!!

    That very well could be. The last time I checked was probably a couple of years ago- my earlier post in this thread was based on my findings at that time.
