Grandmother cops eyeful of postman's 'package'

An Australia Post worker delivered a nasty surprise to an elderly Brisbane grandmother, exposing his erect penis while handing over her mail, a court has heard.

Raymond Toa Vaele, 46, was yesterday sentenced to three years' probation over the October 23, 2006 incident inside the 62 year-old woman's Acacia Ridge home.

The court heard Vaele, a father of four who worked as a sub contractor for Australia Post, had been delivering a parcel to the woman when she invited him inside to put it down.

As he handed her a clipboard to sign for the item, Crown prosecutor Amanda Meisenhelter said the woman noticed Vaele's erect penis poking 10cm out of his shorts.

"He does admit that the shorts he was wearing were too short to be inside the house," Ms Meisenhelter said of Vaele, who pleaded guilty to one count of doing an indecent act.

The court heard the woman, who had been looking after her three young grandchildren at the time, waited until Vaele continued on his rounds before making a complaint. He was eventually identified through delivery records and a photographic line-up.
