Secret Service Agent Sentenced In Scheme Related To Silk Road Investigation
This isn't newsworthy, the incident happened in 2013 and he was already caught, sentenced, and sent to jail in 2015. He received 71 months in prison. His partner in crime (Carl 
 Force) received six years in prison (HN discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10417551). The whole incident was well publicized in the media (thousands of articles). The only new thing this one adds is that the DoJ announced he is receiving additional sentencing.The submission title is clickbait, and does not reflect the article's contents. A better title would be "Secret Service Agent receives additional 24 month sentence for theft of 1,600 Silk Road Bitcoins".If you're interested in the background for the case, WIRED has a good article from March 2015 [1], as well as a link to the pair's criminal charges [2] .[0] https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/former-secret-service-agent-s...[1] https://www.wired.com/2015/03/dea-agent-charged-acting-paid-...[2] https://www.scribd.com/document/260409270/Force-Bridges-Crim...
