A former FBI agent has been accused of stealing nearly $1 million in cryptocurrency from accounts being monitored by the agency.

Court documents reveal that Patrick Yaroch allegedly confessed to the crime when questioned by federal agents, citing frustration over the government's inaction regarding the misuse of cryptocurrency accounts as a motive for his actions.

The FBI fired Yaroch and authorities arrested him last week. An agency spokesperson stated that the FBI holds its employees to the highest ethical standards and is conducting a thorough investigation into the incident.
